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?
