prekṣāṁ kṣipantaṁ haritopalādreḥ sandhyābhra-nīver uru-rukma-mūrdhnaḥ ratnodadhārauṣadhi-saumanasya vana-srajo veṇu-bhujāṅghripāṅghreḥ

Translation

The luster of the transcendental body of the Lord mocked the beauty of the coral mountain. The coral mountain is very beautifully dressed by the evening sky, but the yellow dress of the Lord mocked its beauty. There is gold on the summit of the mountain, but the Lord's helmet, bedecked with jewels, mocked it. The mountain's waterfalls, herbs, etc., with a panorama of flowers, seem like garlands, but the Lord's gigantic body, and His hands and legs, decorated with jewels, pearls, tulasī leaves and flower garlands, mocked the scene on the mountain.
