Published English meaning — Dr. Bageeshwari Devi

<a id="line-11"></a>The dazzling effulgent form of Kishorī Jī is so bright that it surpasses  
<a id="line-12"></a>the effulgence of radiance itself. The radiant light of the beautiful jewels  
<a id="line-13"></a>and pearls in Her crown is falling on Her forehead. The red bindī in the  
<a id="line-14"></a>centre of Her forehead beautifies it even more by its radiance. Glittering  
<a id="line-15"></a>gold earrings adorn Her ears. The radiant light from Her crown, bindī,  
<a id="line-16"></a>and earrings is falling on Her beautiful round cheeks. Her nose ring,  
<a id="line-17"></a>nose pearl and besara are together showering different shades of light  
<a id="line-18"></a>on Her face. Elegant necklaces of various coloured sparkling gems and  
<a id="line-19"></a>glittering pearls adorn Her neck. Her armlets and bracelets studded with  
<a id="line-20"></a>precious jewels are glittering with multiple shades of light. The radiant  
<a id="line-21"></a>light from Her waist band, anklets, and toe rings captivates  
<a id="line-22"></a>Shyāmasundara’s heart. If all these lights that emanate from Kishorī Jī  
<a id="line-23"></a>are put together, they give the appearance that She is the very  
<a id="line-24"></a>personification of light itself.
