Translation

 

In the abode of joy and benevolence lies the beautiful truth

Your glory shines across the vast sky

The universe ornaments your feet.

Stars and planets, moon and the sun rush out ecstatically

To drink at, to wash under the pouring grace, infinitely

Unleashing founts upon the earth. The enchanting beauty all around

Receiving you with songs offering leafy, floral greetings - aromatic.

Life flows night and day, in ever-new streams

Bestowed by your tireless blessings – in life, in death.

Hearts soften by affection, love, mercy and devotion

Wiping away the heat of distress, showering sympathy

In a grand festivity the world greets Thee

In prosperity, deep adoration and in complete submission.
