O lord, your shadow is seen in irreligion, which brings about varieties of irreligious creations. The three modes of nature — goodness, passion and ignorance — are your three eyes. All the Vedic literatures, which are full of verses, are emanations from you because their compilers wrote the various scriptures after receiving your glance.

Translation
O lord! Your shadow is seen in irreligion. The three modes of nature—goodness, passion and ignorance— which brings about various creations, are your three eyes. All the ancient Vedic literatures, composed of verses, are your glance. You, the soul of all beings, are the creator of scriptures. Your shadow exists in the waves of adharma such as pride. The three guṇas by which various creations arise are your three eyes. O lord (deva)! The Vedas composed of verses are your glance. Another version has sākṣat manuḥ. Manuḥ also means the Vedas.
