Rendering based on ALkoNdavilli gOvindhAchArya swAmy’s English translation of gIthA bhAshyam
‘(Say they): “By me has this to-day been gained; I shall gain this heart-desire; this money I have, and again it, will I earn.”’
This = Land, sons etc. They have all been acquired by me, i.e., by my own exertion; there is no other unseen cause therefor. And whatever be my heart’s-desires (manoratha), I shall be able to have them fulfilled by Myself; no other unseen Agent exists.
‘And this money that I have I have earned indeed, by my own single individual efforts. And I am going to have more of it too by my own effort.’
