कल्पवृक्षोऽर्थिसार्थानां मित्रालानां दिवाकरः ।
माधवो बन्धुपुष्पाणां स्त्रीणां मकरकेतनः ॥ २ ॥

kalpavṛkṣo'rthisārthānāṃ mitrālānāṃ divākaraḥ |
mādhavo bandhupuṣpāṇāṃ strīṇāṃ makaraketanaḥ || 2 ||

He is as the ever fruitful kalpa tree to the host of his suitors, and as the vivifying sun to his lotus-like friends; he is as the genial spring to the florets of his relatives, and as the god Cupid to females.
