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.

yad arcitam brahma-bhavadibhih suraih
sriya ca devya munibhih sa-satvataih
go-caranayanucarais carad vane
yad gopikanam kuca-kunkumankitam

TRANSLATION
Those lotus feet are worshiped by Brahma, Siva and all the other demigods, by the goddess of fortune, and also by the great sages and Vaisnavas. Upon those lotus feet the Lord walks about the forest while herding the cows with His companions, and those feet are smeared with the kunkuma from the gopis’ breasts.

TRANSLATION
Indeed, today King Kamsa has shown me extreme mercy by sending me to see the lotus feet of Lord Hari, who has now appeared in this world. Simply by the effulgence of His toenails, many souls in the past have transcended the insurmountable darkness of material existence and achieved liberation.
