दृशि स्कन्दमूर्तिः श्रुतौ स्कन्दकीर्ति- र्मुखे मे पवित्रं सदा तच्चरित्रम् । करे तस्य कृत्यं वपुस्तस्य भृत्यं गुहे सन्तु लीना ममाशेषभावाः ॥२६॥

Word breakdown
- दृशि स्कन्दमूर्तिः श्रुतौ स्कन्दकीर्ति-
- Skanda's form in sight, Skanda's praise in hearing,
- र्मुखे मे पवित्रं सदा तच्चरित्रम् ।
- his sacred story always in my mouth,
- करे तस्य कृत्यं वपुस्तस्य भृत्यं
- his work in my hands, my body his servant -
- गुहे सन्तु लीना ममाशेषभावाः
- may all my states be absorbed in Guha.
May sight hold Skanda's form, ears his praise, mouth his story, hands his service, body his servitude. Total absorption in the Lord replaces the scattered attention of worldly life.
