kamalākarāḥ lotus-tanks, jarājarjaritaiḥ grey with age, śīrṇakēsarakarṇikaiḥ with filament and pericarp withered, nālaśēṣaiḥ only stalks remaining, himadhvastaiḥ destroyed by snow, padmaiḥ by lotuses, na bhānti are not shining.
The lotuses in the tank no more shine (bright) as they are decayed by age, their filaments and pericarps withered with only stalks remaining.
