bhāgavataḥ kaviḥ thnalvnaḥpura-kule lavdha janmā hr̥t-stha-haris sadā . sa haṅso jñāna-śuddhātmā nam anityaṁ vicintayan· prati tasmād dharau prādād ghr̥ṭa-pātraṁ sadīpakam· .

anityaṁ anityam sadīpakam· . sadīpakam·

le sage Bhāgavata, né dans la famille de la ville de Thnal Vnaḥ, le cœur constamment dévoué à Hari,

ce haṁsa réfléchissant continuellement sur l'impermanence de son moi purifié par la connaissance, à cause de cela a donné à Hari un bol de beurre fondu avec une lampe.

The expression sa haṅso in line 2 can be also understood as sahaṁso meaning "with the haṁsa".
