priyaḥ priyāyārhasi deva soḍhum
Word for word:

Translation:
You are the Supreme Lord, to be worshiped by every living being. Thus I fall down to offer You my respectful obeisances and ask Your mercy. As a father tolerates the impudence of his son, a friend the impertinence of a friend, or a husband the familiarity of his wife, please tolerate the wrongs I may have done You.
tasmāt praṇamya, therefore I offer Obeisances to You,
praṇidhāya kāyaṁ, I lay down and offer obeisances to You
prasādaye tvām aham īśam īḍyam, have mercy my dear Lord,
He gave three example.
