Simple Translation
768. You are unique,
but you, limitless, are also the three gods,
Shivā, Vishnu and Nānmuhan, and the four gods.
You who rest on Adishesha on the wide milky ocean
are the source of good karmā,
and give joy and goodness to all.
No one can comprehend your form.
How can you, the ancient god,
come to the world in human form?
