Literal Meaning:
“O Uma! Pray, tell us how we can describe the splendour of Thy hands, which, being lit up with the radiance of Thy nails, surpasses the brightness of the mornings’ lotus blooms. Lotus can perhaps attain some similarity with Thy hands if its redness is enhanced by contact with the lac-dye of the feet of Goddess Lakshmi who sports in it.”
