Hear why we have come in the early morning and worship your
lotus-like feet. Being born in the clan of cowherds you cannot refuse our
service to you. We have not come here just ask for the requisites for this
vratha but to pray that we should belong to you for all the lives to come and
should serve you alone. remove all the other desires of ours.
