sanniyacchābhibho manyum 
  nibodha śrāvitam ca me 
  sarvataḥ sāram ādatte 
  yathā madhu-karo budhaḥ
sanniyaccha—please pacify; abhibho—O King; manyum—anger; nibodha—try to understand; śrāvitam—what is said; ca—also; me—by me; sarvataḥ—from everywhere; sāram—the essence; ādatte—takes; yathā—as; madhu-karaḥ—the bumblebee; budhaḥ—an intelligent person.
TRANSLATION
My dear Lord, please pacify your anger completely and patiently hear whatever I submit before you. Please turn your kind attention to this. I may be very poor, but a learned man takes the essence of knowledge from all places, just as a bumblebee collects honey from each and every flower.
