[शश्रीनाथ (śaśrīnātha) - of Śrīnātha; कीर्ति (kīrti) - fame; अम्भुज (ambhuja) - lotus; सेव्य (sevya) - worthy of loving service; गन्धं (gandhaṃ) - fragrance; प्राणः (prāṇaḥ) - life-breath / Guru Madhva; स (sa) - he; सङ्गृह्य (saṅgṛhya) - having gathered; विहर्तुम् (vihartum) - to enjoy / delight; इष्टे (iṣṭe) - desires; सः (saḥ) - he; अहम् (aham) - I; तत् (tat) - that; धीया (dhīyā) - by intellect; आगम (āgama) - scripture; विस्तृतं (vistṛtaṃ) - expanded / broadened; तत् (tat) - that; वाणी (vāṇī) - speech; मुखं (mukhaṃ) - mouth; वासयितुं (vāsayituṃ) - to perfume; वृणोमि (vṛṇomi) - I choose;]

(He, the life-breath, Guru Madhva, having gathered the fragrance worthy of service from the lotus of Śrīnātha's (Lord of Lakshmi) fame, desires to enjoy. I, therefore, choose to perfume that mouth of speech, expanded by the intellect and scripture, with that.)

The very breath of life — Guru Madhva — gathers the fragrance, worthy of loving service, from the lotus that is Śrīnātha’s glory, and delights in its sweetness. And so I let that same fragrance infuse my speech, broadened by his thought and scripture, that my words may carry its perfume.
