vi me karṇā patayato vi cakṣurvīdaṃ jyotirhṛdaya āhitaṃ yat | vi me manaścarati dūraādhīḥ kiṃ svid vakṣyāmikimu nū maniṣye

Mine ears unclose to hear, mine eye to see him; the light that harbours in my spirit broadens. Far roams my mind whose thoughts are in the distance. What shall I speak, what shall I now imagine?
