असित गिरि समं स्यात् कज्जलम् सिन्धु पात्रे
सुरतरुवर शाखा लेखनी पत्रम् उर्वी ।
लिखति यदि गृहित्वा शारदा सर्वकालं
तदपि तव गुणानां ईश पारं न याति ॥
Shloka as Romanized text
asita giri samaM syAt kajjalam sindhu pAtre
surataruvara shAkhA lekhanI patram urvI |
likhati yadi gRuhitvA shAradA sarvakAlaM
tadapi tava guNAnAM Isha pAraM na yAti ||
Perhaps taking the mountain of ink, dark ocean as the pot,
branch of the heavenly tree as the pen and earth as the leaf (paper)
even if shArada (divine of knowledge) write forever,
even then, Oh Ishvara, the boundaries of Your glory
cannot be found!!
