Godha Stuthi - 21

Rangeswarasya tava cha pranayAnubhandhAth
anyonya maalya parivrutthim abhishtuvantha :
vaachalayanthi VasudhE rasikAstrilokheem
nunoodhikathva-samathA- vishayairvivAdhai :

MEANING:
O GodhA dEvi, the amsam of Bhoomi Piratti (VasudhE)! Those fortunate rasikAs,
who attended the wedding between RanganAtha and You and had the joy of
witnessing, the exchange of garlands during that occasion; they fill this earth with the
sound of their noisy debates even today. At that time, RanganathA bent His head to
receive the garland worn by You and You reciprocated in the same way during the
time of the exchange of Garlands. Both of You wore each other's garland with great
affection and joy due to your mutual love. Those, who were blessed to be part of this,
joyous occasion are divided into three categories based on the sides that they take
about the relative superiority among both of You. One group avers that you are
superior because of His regard for You born out of His immeasurable love for You;
the second group believes that You are His obedient and affectionate wife and
therefore, Your Lord is superior to You. The third group is convinced that both of You
are equal to each other in every measure. All these three groups advocate their
positions loudly and the din arising from their debates on the subject echo loudly
around the eight directions of the Universe even today.
