Bhaktamar Stotra by Acarya Manatunga # 5

Stotra
so'ham tathaapi tava bhaktivashaanmuniisha
karttum stavam vigatashaktirapi pravrttah
priityaatmaviiryamvicaarya mrgo mrgendram
naa'bhyeti kim nijashishohparipaalanaartham [5]

 Pronounciation
so'ham tathApi tava bhaktivazAnmunIza
karttuM stavaM vigatazaktirapi pravRttaH
prItyAtmavIryamvicArya mRgo mRgendraM
nA'bhyeti kiM nijazizoHparipAlanArthaM [5]

Meaning
O lord of the sages!
Despite lacking the ability of composing this eulogy,
I attempt to do so out of devotion to you.
Out of love, without considering its own strength,
Doesn't the deer take on the lion, To protect its young one?
