निर्लेपस्य कुतो गन्धः पुष्पं निर्वासनस्य च ।निर्विशेषस्य का भूषा कोऽलङ्कारो निराकृतेः ॥ ४ ॥
In plain words
Nothing sticks to you — so where would the sandal paste go? And a flower, offered to what holds no scent, no trace, no leftover impression at all? What decoration suits what has no single feature to set off? What ornament do you hang on what has no form?
Close to the Sanskrit
For the unsmeared one, whence fragrance? And a flower, for the one without vāsanā? For the featureless one, what adornment? What ornament, for the formless one?
