Verse 23

उन्नम्नं कम्रमुच्चैरुपचितमुदभूद्यत्र पत्रैर्विचित्रैःपूर्वं गीर्वाणपूज्यं कमलजमधुपस्यास्पदं तत्पयोजम् ।यस्मिन्नीलाश्मनीलैस्तरलरुचिजलैः पूरिते केलिबुद्ध्यानालीकाक्षस्य नाभीसरसि वसतु नश्चित्तहंसश्चिराय ॥

In plain words

May the swan of our mind linger long in the lake of the lotus-eyed Lord's navel—that raised and lovely flower once worshipped by the gods as the birthplace of Brahma, now brimming with waters dark and gleaming like sapphires, inviting playful sport.

Close to the Sanskrit

May the swan of our mind dwell for a long time in the lake of the navel of the lotus-eyed one—which navel, filled with trembling waters having the dark luster of blue sapphires under the notion of play, is that raised, charming, highly developed water-born lotus with variegated petals, formerly worshipped by the gods, which is the abode of the lotus-born honey-bee (Brahma).
