TRANSLATION

O lord, we know that when you simply move your eyebrows, all
the commanders of the various planets are most afraid. Without
the help of any assistant, you have conquered all the three worlds.
Therefore, we do not find any reason for you to be morose and full
of anxiety. As for Prahlada, he is nothing but a child and cannot be
a cause of anxiety. After all, his bad or good qualities have no
value.
