How cronies of leaders beg from them!!..
Just heard this today and have tried to write it without error. It is too hilarious! If you can point a grammatical or spelling error, let me know - I will change
देवेथं जगति तले पुरहराभाव: समुन्मीषति
अर्धं दानववैरिणा गिरिजयापि अर्धं शिवस्याहृतं ।
गङ्गासागरमम्बरं शशधरो नागाधिप: क्ष्मातलं
सर्वज्ञत्वं ईश्वरत्वमगमत्त्वं मां च भिक्षाटनम् ॥
This poet goes to a king and says - O Lord! Lord Shiva is gone - half His body is taken away by Parvati Devi. the other half by Lord Vishnu - to become Shankara-Narayana
Of His ornaments - The Ganga has joined the ocean, the moon has gone back to space and the serpent to the base of the earth.
BUT - His Omniscience and Omnipotence have come to you O lord!!!! And I am left with His begging bowl!! [Therefore please Give me generously:))]
One more!
राजन् त्वत् कीर्तिचन्द्रेण तिथय: पूर्णिमा: कृता: ।
किन्तु मद्गृहम् आयाता तिथिरेकादशी भयात् ॥
Alternate reading
राजस्त्वत्कीर्तिचन्द्रेण तिथयः पूर्णिमा कृताः ।
मद्रेहान्न बहिर्यीति तिथिरेकादशी भयात् ॥
King! Your fame is like the full moon. Since you entered, all "tithis" are now only Poornima. But only one tithi has entered my home - Ekadashi (due to which I have to keep fasting! Therefore please give me generously!!)
