Translation -
[N.B.:—This hymn is mysterious in meaning though very simple in literal constructive. The whole hymn is concerned with Uchchhista. The literarary meaning of the word is Residue, or the things remanent. But here this term does not denote this meaning. Here it is at all peculiar. Uchchhist is really Utshist meaning” remaining over, above and after of all. Thus, Uchchhist, signifies that thing which establishes its impact over and above all and remains unaffected after all that becomes affected, Almighty Divinity remains unaffected when the matter is turned into the phenomenality of all the objects of the universe. When time of dissolution comes the whole of the world becomes dissolved. God remains unaffected when everything of the world becomes created. He also remains unaffected when everything of the world becomes victim of the dissolution. Therefore, God is called Uchchhist and this is the main theme of the hymn under question] The name and forms of this universe are regularly held in Uchchhist, All controlling and All-sustaining Divinity; the world is held in God; the all-pervading electricity, the effulgent and impelling heat are heald God, and thus is held therein the whole universe..
