कालं करोन्तो जिनम् अदृशासि मनोज्ञघोषां वसे राजधानीं ।
सो इन्द्रकीले स्थित लोकनाथं पुष्पां ग्रहेत्वा अभिकिरे वेगजातो ॥ ६२४ ॥
kālaṃ karonto jinam adṛśāsi manojñaghoṣāṃ vase rājadhānīṃ |
so indrakīle sthita lokanāthaṃ puṣpāṃ grahetvā abhikire vegajāto || 624 ||
When he has fulfilled his time he sees the Conqueror. He shall dwell in a royal city that is full of pleasant sounds. Standing on Indra’s column with flowers in his hands, he shall eagerly shower them on the Saviour of the world. (624)
