Devanāgarī

समो ऽहं सर्वभूतेषु न मे द्वेष्यो ऽस्ति न प्रियः ॥
ये भजन्ति तु मां भक्त्या मयि ते तेषु चाप्य् अहम् ॥
अपि चेत् सुदुराचारो भजते माम् अनन्यभाक् ॥
साधुर् एव स मन्तव्यः सम्यग् व्यवसितो हि सः ॥
क्षिप्रं भवति धर्मात्मा शश्वच्छान्तिं निगच्छति ॥
कौन्तेय प्रतिजानीहि न मे भक्तः प्रणश्यति ॥
मां हि पार्थ व्यपाश्रित्य ये ऽपि स्युः पापयोनयः ॥
स्त्रियो वैश्यास् तथा शूद्रास् ते ऽपि यान्ति परां गतिम् ॥
किं पुनर् ब्राह्मणाः पुण्या भक्ता राजर्षयस् तथा ॥
अनित्यम् असुखं लोकम् इमं प्राप्य भजस्व माम् ॥
मन्मना भव मद्भक्तो मद्याजी मां नमस्कुरु ॥
माम् एवैष्यसि युक्त्वैवम् आत्मानं मत्परायणः ॥

Translation

'I am equal toward all beings: for Me there is none hateful and none beloved. But those who serve Me with devotion dwell in Me, and I dwell in them. Even if a person of thoroughly evil conduct serves Me undividedly, he should be regarded as a sadhu, for his resolve is right. He soon becomes righteous of soul and attains lasting peace. O son of Kunti, proclaim it: My devotee never perishes. For, having taken refuge in Me, O son of Pritha, even those considered born in sinful circumstances — women, vaishyas, and shudras — also attain the highest goal. How much more, then, the pious brahmins, devotees, and royal sages? Having come into this impermanent and joyless world, serve Me. Think of Me, become My devotee, worship Me and bow to Me; thus, having bound yourself to Me and made Me your highest goal, you shall come to Me.'
