English:
Speak only as godlike of the man who feels another's
pain
Who shares another's sorrow and pride does
disdain
Who regards himself lowliest of the low
Speaks not a word of evil against anyone
Blessed is
the mother who gave birth to such a son
Who looks
upon everyone as his equal,
Lust he has renounced
Who honors women like he honors his mother
Whose
tongue knows not the taste of falsehood
Nor covets
another's worldly goods
Who longs not for worldly
wealth (or fame)
For he treads the path of
renunciation
Ever on his lips is Ram's holy name
All places of pilgrimage are within him
He has
conquered greed, is free of deceit, lust and anger
Through him Narsinh has godly vision
And his
generation to come will attain salvation.
