respects to the nine planets



शूरः शूरपदं रुचिं हिमरुचिः सन्मंगलं मङ्गलो।
बोधं बोधन आतनोतु ललितावाचश्च वाचस्पतिः।
काव्यः काव्यकलापनिरतिं मन्दो द्विषन्मन्दतां
दुर्वृत्तेषु तमस्तामो जयकरीं केतुश्च केतुश्रियम्॥
विद्वन्मोदतरङ्गिणी
śūraḥ śūrapadaṁ ruciṁ himaruciḥ sanmaṁgalaṁ maṅgalo|
bodhaṁ bodhana ātanotu lalitāvācaśca vācaspatiḥ|
kāvyaḥ kāvyakalāpaniratiṁ mando dviṣanmandatāṁ
durvṛtteṣu tamastāmo jyakarīṁ ketuśca ketuśriyam||
