Meaning: Where has all that concern for me disappeared now? O Supreme among Raghus! Ocean of mercy! You yourself had initiated me into the subtleties of true devotion and protected me. Where has... Then when you went to the extent of assuring me that you would regard all those harming me as harming yourself. You had counseled me patience and forbearance. Have you not ignored and even pardoned those who have heaped countless insults on you? You had fed me and nourished me in such a way that my body glows with a healthy sheen. You had assured me that you would be ever my father and mother. Why don't you show me that compassionate concern now?
