Srimad Bhagavatam
Canto 10 Chapter 38 Text 12

yasyakhilamiva-habhih su-mangalaih
vaco vimisra guna-karma-janmabhih
prananti sumbhanti punanti vai jagat
yas tad-viraktah sava-sobhana matah

TRANSLATION
All sins are destroyed and all good fortune is created by the Supreme Lord’s qualities, activities and appearances, and words that describe these three things animate, beautify and purify the world. On the other hand, words bereft of His glories are like the decorations on a corpse.
