the mountains and other numerous worlds.

approached you as your devotee.

installed therein a beautiful golden bedstead overlaid with
jasmine flowers. Pray, rest on it I shall offer you.

praises. The shamiana over the bedstead is also decorated
with flowers. While I offer you nazars and rock you, Brahma

Tyagaraja and bless him !
