966. He, who is praised with a thousand names,
Destroys all sins for those who truly know and trust Him.
No harm shall ever touch those,
Who do not turn away from His feet.
Such is the grace, such is the greatness
Of our Lord who dwells in the sacred Himalayas,
Where blooming ashoka trees shine with fiery beauty,
And foolish bees, mistaking them for flame,
Shrink back in fear.
Go, O heart, and reach Thiruppirithi!
