यतोऽपत्यं त्वया त्यक्तं कोपशीले सुनिष्ठुरे
Because you, harsh and wrathful one, have abandoned your offspring—
या यास्त्वदंशरूपाश्च भविष्यन्ति सुरस्त्रियः
Whatever goddesses will be born as your portions—
एतस्मिन्नन्तरे देवी जिह्वाग्रात्सहसा ततः
Meanwhile, the goddess suddenly emerged from the tip of the tongue.
पीतवस्त्रपरीधाना वीणापुस्तकधारिणी
Clad in yellow garments, holding a vīṇā and a book,
अथ कालान्तरे सा च द्विधारूपा बभूव ह
Then, after some time, she assumed a dual form.
एतस्मिन्नन्तरे कृष्णो द्विधारूपो बभूव ह
At that moment, Kṛṣṇa also became twofold in form.
उवाच वाणीं श्रीकृष्णस्त्वमस्य भव कामिनी
Śrī Kṛṣṇa said to Vāṇī, 'You become his beloved.'
एवं लक्ष्मीं संप्रदौ तुष्टो नारायणाय वै
Thus, pleased, he gave Lakṣmī to Nārāyaṇa.
अनपत्ये च ते द्वे च यतो राधांशसम्भवे 2.2.
And because you are childless, two will arise from the portion of Rādhā.
तेजसा वयसा रूपगुणाभ्यां च समा हरेः
In brilliance, age, beauty, and qualities, they are equal to Hari.
अथ गोलोकनाथस्य लोमाविवरतो मुने
Then, O sage, from the pore of the Lord of Goloka—
रूपेण सुगुणेनैव वेषाद्वा विक्रमेण च
By form, by virtue, by attire, or by valor,
राधाङ्गलोमकूपेभ्यो बभूवुर्गोपकन्यकाः
From the pores of Rādhā's body arose the cowherd maidens.
रत्नभूषणभूषाढ्याः शश्वत्सुस्थिरयौवनाः
Adorned with jeweled ornaments, they possessed ever-firm and youthful beauty.
एतस्मिन्नन्तरे विप्र सहसा कृष्णदेहतः
Meanwhile, O Brahmin, suddenly from Kṛṣṇa's body—
देवी नारायणीशाना सर्वशक्तिस्वरूपिणी
The goddess Nārāyaṇī, sovereign, embodiment of all powers,
देवीनां बीजरूपा च मूलप्रकृतिरीश्वरी
Seed-form of all goddesses, the primal nature, the supreme Lady,
तप्तकाञ्चनवर्णाभा सूर्य्यकोटिसमप्रभा
With the radiance of molten gold, shining like ten million suns,
नानाशस्त्रास्त्रनिकरं बिभ्रती सा त्रिलोचना 2.2.
Bearing many kinds of weapons and missiles, she was three-eyed.
यस्याश्चांशांशकलया बभूवुः सर्वयोषितः
By whose portions and sub-portions all women came into being,
सर्वैश्वर्य्यप्रदात्री च कामिनां गृहमेधिनाम्
Bestower of all prosperity to those who desire, to householders,
मुमुक्षूणां मोक्षदात्री सुखिनां सुखदायिनी
Giver of liberation to the seekers of freedom, giver of happiness to the happy,
तपस्विषु तपस्या च श्रीरूपा सा नृपेषु च
She is austerity among ascetics, beauty among kings,
शोभास्वरूपा चन्द्रे च पद्मेषु च सुशोभना
She is the very form of splendor in the moon, and is most beautiful among lotuses.
यया च शक्तिमानात्मा यया वै शक्तिमज्जगत्
By whom the self is empowered, and by whom indeed the world is endowed with power,
या च संसारवृक्षस्य बीजरूपा सनातनी
She who is the eternal seed-form of the tree of worldly existence,
क्षुत्पिपासा दया श्रद्धा निद्रा तन्द्रा क्षमा धृतिः
Hunger, thirst, compassion, faith, sleep, drowsiness, forgiveness, fortitude—
सा च संस्तूय सर्वेशं तत्पुरः समुपस्थिता
She, having been praised, stood before the Lord of all.
एतस्मिन्नन्तरे तत्र सस्त्रीकश्च चतुर्मुखः 2.2.
Meanwhile, there appeared there the Four-faced One, together with his wife.
कमण्डलुधरः श्रीमांस्तपस्वी ज्ञानिनां वरः
Bearing a water-pot, glorious, an ascetic, foremost among the wise.
