यो वै भूमा तत्सुखं नाल्पे सुखमस्तिभूमैव सुखं भूमा त्वेव विजिज्ञासितव्यइति भूमानं भगवो विजिज्ञास इति ॥ १ ॥
In plain words
Whatever is truly the Infinite—that is joy. There is no joy in the finite. The Infinite alone is joy, and the Infinite is what you must seek to know. 'Respected sir, it is the Infinite that I wish to know.'
Close to the Sanskrit
Whatever indeed is the Infinite, that is happiness. There is no happiness in the small; the Infinite alone is happiness. The Infinite indeed must be inquired into. 'The Infinite, venerable sir, I wish to know,' thus.
