- आ ज्ञातं गिरिजे कटाक्षकलया नूनं त्वया तोषिते

- शम्भौ नृत्यति नागराजफणिना कीर्णा मणिश्रेणया ॥११॥
- Shiva dances on the serpent king's hood, strewn with rows of gems.
Ocean jewels and divine architecture are nothing beside the Mother's glance. One flash of her grace moves Shiva to dance, showing that the Lord's joy flows from Shakti, the active power of consciousness.
