इरावती धेनुमती हि भूतं सूयवसिनी मनुषे दशस्या | वय अस्तभ्ना रोदसी विष्णव एते दाधर्थ पर्थिवीम अभितो मयूखैः
IAST Romanisation
irāvatī dhenumatī hi bhūtaṃ sūyavasinī manuṣe daśasyā | vy astabhnā rodasī viṣṇav ete dādhartha pṛthivīm abhito mayūkhaiḥ

Rich in sweet food be ye, and rich in milch-kine, with fertile pastures, fain to do men service. Both these worlds, Viṣṇu, hast thou stayed asunder, and firmly fixed the earth with pegs around it.
