प्रिये O my beloved, जटाजिनधराः with matted locks and wearing deer skins, वल्कलोत्तरवाससः bark as upper cloth, ऋषयः rishis, काले at the appointed hour, मन्दाकिनीं नदीम् the river Mandakini, अवगाहन्ते are immersing.

O my beloved rishis with matted locks and wearing deer skins and bark of trees as upper cloth bathe in the river Mandakini for performing morning ablutions in time.
