Balarama
Sthava Raja
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
(The stotra is
taken from Garga Samhitha and is addressed to Balarama incarnation of Lord
Vishnu. Lord Balarama was the Guru
of Duryodhana. The stotra in DEvanagari is available in
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/122158057/Sri-Balabhadra-Stavarajam---Garga-Samhita.
I have already translated a Balarama Kavacham
, which is available in http://stotraratna.sathyasaibababrotherhood.org/k53.htm)
Duryodhana Uvacha:-

Baladevasya prangvipaka maha mune,
Vadha maam krupayaa
Saakshaath sarva sidhi

Duryodhana said:-
Oh great sage
Prangvipaka , please tell me
