O Daughter of Himavan! the bright whiteness of your smile, tinged by the bright red
colour of your lips, showers auspiciousness on me. It frequently hangs in the middle of the
chest of Shiva, enemy of Kama, as a delicate garland made of white jasmine
and red hibiscus flowers.

of kindness and cools the entire world.
Seeing this, the heart of Shiva

O Kamakshi! Comparing your smile with nectar is not at
all correct. If it is correct how is it
that Your smile does not suffer the mandara flower, it churns the celestial
Ganga, reviles the moon and is jealous of the milky ocean ( only because all of them radiate bright
white rays). These are all characteristics not in consonance with those of
nectar.
