A beautiful verse by Sri Appaya Deekshita 

Upanyasa (Speech) delivered by
Jagadguru Sri Sankaracharya of Kanchi
Brahmibhuta Sri Chandrasekharendra Sarasvati Mahasvaminah

Text

मौलौ गङ्गा शशाङ्कौ करचरणतले शीतलाङ्गा भुजङ्गा:
वामे भागे दयार्द्रा हिमगिरिदुहिता चन्दनं सर्वगात्रे ।
इत्थं शीतं प्रभूतं तव कनकसभानाथ सोढुं क्व शक्ति:
चित्ते निर्वेदतप्ते यदि भवति न ते नित्यवासो मदीये ॥
maulau gaṅgā śaśānkau 
   karacaraṇatale śītalāṅgābhujaṅgāḥ
vāme bhāge dayārdrā 
   himagiriduhitā candanaṃ sarvagātre
itthaṃ śītaṃ prabhūtaṃ 
   tava kanakasabhānātha soḍhuṃ kva śaktiḥ
citte nirvedatapte 
   yadi bhavati na te nityavāso madīye
