Sanskrit Original
सेवितं गणगन्धर्वैः सिद्धैरप्सरसां गणैः। देवताभिः सह ब्रह्मा भीतभीतः सगद्गदम। प्रणम्य दण्डवद्भूमौ तुष्टाव परमेश्वरम।।
sevitaṃ gaṇagandharvaiḥ siddhairapsarasāṃ gaṇaiḥ| devatābhiḥ saha brahmā bhītabhītaḥ sagadgadam| praṇamya daṇḍavadbhūmau tuṣṭāva parameśvaram||
Prayer: In the meantime, Devas including Indra and Brahmā came to lord Śiva and eulogised him after informing him about the activities of Viṣṇu who assumed the form of a beast (Lion). Then Brahmā and others eulogised Parameśvara. They sought refuge in him who is the great cause, for saving their souls. Accompanied by Devas and extremely afraid, Brahmā eulogised Parameśvara Mahādeva who was staying on the Mandara mountain sporting with Umā and who was served by his Gaṇas, Gandharvas, Siddhas and Apsarses. Brahmā prostrated on the ground and eulogised Parameśvara with words choked in the throat.
