suprabhaatam || 9 ||

(The sage) Naarada, with (his) Viina of sweet music produced by the
tight-grip of the strings, is singing in praise of Thy endless deeds (or
singing O Endless! Thy deeds), expressed in fine language, by beautifully
waving the hand often. Lord of Sheshaachala! May it be an auspicious dawn to
Thee.
