With a garland of fragrant, curly locks, and a face as bright as the moon,
With a body as soft as a cloud, and adorned with precious jewels,
With a gait like a graceful elephant, and a voice like a sweet melody,
With a heart full of compassion, and a mind full of wisdom,
With a beautiful form, and a youthful charm,
He was known as the king of the arts, the beloved of the gods.
He bowed to the Siddhas, and went to the city of the Jinas,
His mind filled with devotion, his heart filled with peace.
He was known as Ganga Datta, and he lived a long and happy life,
Surrounded by his family and friends, his heart filled with joy.
The merchant, too, was captivated by his beauty,
And he was filled with admiration for his noble character.
He was a man of great wealth, and he lived a life of luxury,
But he was also a man of great compassion, and he helped the poor and needy.
He was a man of great wisdom, and he taught others the path to liberation.
He was a man of great love, and he was loved by all who knew him.
