Meaning:
This is the appropriate thing; For the people of
the whole world this is the esteemed path; 
This is the ultimate thing said in shruti, purANa
and Agama; This is the splendor of the light
of devotion; Wear this holy ash !
This roots out the birth; This brushes away the
gamut of gloom; This is established,
oh humans trust this ! 
The quickest wealth is vibhUti !
See that to get rid of the fear of death the sages like
agastya, kashyapa and jamadagni wore this.
The Holy Ash that is loved by the cennamallikArjuna
of shrishaila !
