पूर्णे वर्षसहस्रे तु ब्रह्मा लोकपितामहः॥ अब्रवीन्मधुरं वाक्यं विश्वामित्रं तपोधनम्। जिता राजर्षिलोकास्ते तपसा कुशिकात्मज ॥ अनेन तपसा त्वां हि राजर्षिरिति विद्महे।
pūrṇe varṣasahasre tu brahmā lokapitāmahaḥ|| abravīnmadhuraṃ vākyaṃ viśvāmitraṃ tapodhanam| jitā rājarṣilokāste tapasā kuśikātmaja || anena tapasā tvāṃ hi rājarṣiriti vidmahe|
English Meaning
And when a thousand years had been completed, the Grand-sire of all, Brahma, addressed the ascetic, Viśvāmitra in sweet words, saying, 'O son of Kusika, the regions of the Rājarșis have been won by you through your austerities. And account of this your asceticism, we recognise you as a Rājarși.'
