Translations
Now, O Supreme Lord, as Thou hast thus described Thyself, O Supreme Person, I wish to behold Thy divine form.
I believe all as you have declared it. I now long to have a vision of your divine form, O Most High!
O Supreme Lord, so it is, as You have spoken of Yourself. O Supreme Person, I wish to behold Your divine form.
हे पुरुषोत्तम ! आप अपने-आपको जैसा कहते हैं, यह वास्तवमें ऐसा ही है। हे परमेश्वर ! आपके ईश्वर-सम्बन्धी रूपको मैं देखना चाहता हूँ।Commentary
Some commentators take the two halves of this verse as two independent sentences and interpret it thus. So it is? O Supreme Lord, as Thou hast declared Thyself to be. (But still) I desire to see Thy form as Isvara? O Supreme Person. Rupamaisvaram Thy form as Isvara, that of Vishnu as possessed of infinite knowledge, sovereignty, power, strength, prowess and splendour.
