2,I surrender  to the God  who is worshipped  by singing the eight lettered  chant,
Who is Narayana, Who is having lotus like eyes, who used   to melt  us,
By his music of the flute, Who spread  out like a moving  mountain,
Who is achyutha   who lives in the lotus like heart  of many  different people and who is Vishnu.

3.Athimohana  sarasiruha dala komala nayana,

Who makes harms meaningless  and has  a   happy and deathless  history.

5.KaLa bhashana  , chala bhooshana, mathi Dhooshana harana,

5,I surrender  to the God  who is worshipped  by singing the eight lettered  chant,
Who talks lispingly , to whom peace is the ornament  , who destroyed those  who despised  devotion,
Who  gave ability to Lord Brahma, who is  the man lion  responsible for driving away   evil people  ,
Who was engaged in amorous sport  , who is exited  as if by liquor   and  Who wore blue   silk.

6.Leelakrutha  hey  vama mahesa   jana  subhaga,

6,I surrender  to the God  who is worshipped  by singing the eight lettered  chant,
Oh  great Vama pureswara   who plays sports, who  is handsome   to people  ,

Who slowed down Madhu and Kaidabha,and  who  is the  one resembling cupid.

7,Indhindhira varnaa , kundalandholitha  karna,
Vrundavana  vasaa  , pasu vrundavana   sheela ,

7,I surrender  to the God  who is worshipped  by singing the eight lettered  chant,
Who is the colour of bees , Who has hanging  shining globes   on his ears,

Who  is   liked by shiva who wears   the moon   and Lord Vishnu whose  name is nectar.
