1.154.1
विष्णो॒र्नु कं॑ वी॒र्या॑णि॒ प्र वो॑चं॒ यः पार्थि॑वानि विम॒मे रजां॑सि ।
यो अस्क॑भाय॒दुत्त॑रं स॒धस्थं॑ विचक्रमा॒णस्त्रे॒धोरु॑गा॒यः ॥
Now I will proclaim the heroic deeds of Viṣṇu, who measured out the earthly realms, who propped up the highest seat, striding out in three wide steps.
1.154.2
प्र तद्विष्णु॑ स्तवते वी॒र्ये॑ण मृ॒गो न भी॒मः कु॑च॒रो गि॑रि॒ष्ठाः ।
यस्यो॒रुषु॑ त्रि॒षु वि॒क्रम॑णेषु अधिक्षि॒यन्ति॒ भुव॑नानि॒ विश्वा॑ ॥
Viṣṇu is praised for his heroic power, like a fearsome deer roaming the mountains; upon his wide three strides all the worlds rest.
1.154.3
प्र विष्ण॑वे शू॒षमे॑तु॒ मन्म॑ गिरि॒क्षित॑ उरुगा॒याय॒ वृष्णे॑ ।
य इ॒दं दी॒र्घं प्रय॑तं स॒धस्थ॒मेको॑ विम॒मे त्रि॒भिरित्प॒देभिः॑ ॥
Let praise go forth to Viṣṇu, dwelling on the mountains, the wide-striding, the mighty; he alone measured out this long extended seat with three steps.
1.154.4
यस्य॒ त्री पू॒र्णा मधु॑ना प॒दानि॒ अक्षी॑यमाणा स्व॒धया॒ मद॑न्ति ।
य उ॑ त्रि॒धातु॑ पृथि॒वीमु॒त द्यामेको॑ दा॒धार॒ भुव॑नानि॒ विश्वा॑ ॥
Whose three steps are filled with honey, undiminishing, they rejoice with oblation; he alone who upheld the threefold-supported earth and sky, and all the worlds.
1.154.5
तद॑स्य प्रि॒यम॒भि पाथो॑ अश्यां॒ नरो॒ यत्र॑ देव॒यवो॒ मद॑न्ति ।
उ॒रु॒क्र॒मस्य॒ स हि बन्धु॑रि॒त्था विष्णोः॑ प॒दे प॑र॒मे मध्व॒ उत्सः॑ ॥
May I attain that dear path of his, where devoted men rejoice; he is the kinsman of the wide-striding one, and thus in Viṣṇu's highest step there is a spring of honey.
1.154.6
ता वां॒ वास्तू॑न्युश्मसि॒ गम॑ध्यै॒ यत्र॒ गावो॒ भूरि॑शृङ्गा अ॒यासः॑ ।
अत्राह॒ तदु॑रुगा॒यस्य॒ वृष्णः॑ पर॒मं प॒दमव॑ भाति॒ भूरि॑ ॥
Those dwellings of you two we desire to reach, where the many-horned, unwearied cows are; here indeed the highest step of the wide-striding bull shines brightly below.
