The hymn is crowned by the chief hope: "bhaktānukampine nityam", "ever compassionate to devotees", and the plea "sidhyatāṃ nau varaḥ", "may our request be fulfilled." It is telling that after all the cosmic names -- thousand-headed, of countless deeds -- what is named last and decisively is not the vastness of His might, but His mercy toward devotees. The verse teaches that what matters most in God for the believer is not the immensity of His greatness, but His compassion for devotees: it is to this that every prayer calls out; and the one who praises rests his hope not on the might of the one revered, but on His unfailing mercy toward those devoted to Him.
