  Meditation on Lord's Six Faces

What can I compare to Thy six faces!  If there be six full moons free
from blemishes and if those moons be ever shining on all sides, even
then they would be no match to your effulgent faces.

Oh! Son of Parameshwara, I see Thy six lotus smiling faces
shining like a group of swans, having gleaming side glance ever moving
like a row of bees and with red lips overflowing with nectar.

Oh! Son of Parameshwara! Oh! Merciful Lord!  When Thou hast twelve
broad long eyes extending upto ears, what will Thou loose by casting
that side glance for a moment [on me]?
