1.Indira hrudayanandam   vrundaraka  Ganarchitham,
Nanda soonum aham   vandhe mandhara   suma  malinam

1.I salute   that son of Nanda who wears   the garland of Mandhara,
Who makes the mind of Goddess  Lakshmi happy and  who is worshipped  by people of Vrundavan.

2.Mandhahasanvitha  mukham , Chandra bimbomananam,
Vrindhavana  sthitham   vandhe sundaram  nanda nandanam

2. I salute  the pretty son of Nanda   who lives in Vrindavana,
Who has a face  which can be compared to moon decorated by a smile  

3.Dhara chakra   gadhaa padma  daram  , dharadhara  prabham,
Surasura ganair vandhyam   , purana purusham bhaje.

3.I sing and pray that  primeval  lord   who is  saluted by  devas and Asuras ,
Who carries the conch, wheel  , mace  and flower  and who  shines like clouds.

4.Kamsa varana  panchasyam  samsararnava  tharakam,
Kesavam   paramanandam   srisam  vandhe  Janardhanam,

4.I salute  Lord Janardhana   who is Kesava , who is divine  joy  ,
Who made Kamsa and his elephant cross   the ocean of Samsara.

5.Vrushni vamsa samudbhootham  , Krishna  kandha  vilochaam,
Krishnaa thapa  haram, vandhe   krishnam  Thibhuvaneswaram.

5. I salute Krishna the lord of the  three  worlds, who destroyed sufferings of Panchali  ,
Who was   born in  the clan of Vrushnis  , who has  black cloud like eyes.

6.Poothanaa  prana  hantharam   , daitheya  kula  nasanam,
Veda vedhyam aham vandhe   satha kruthu  madhanthakam.

6.I salute the Lord saluted by Vedas , who destroyed   the pride  of sAthakruthu  ,
Who took away the soul of Poothana  and destroyed the clan of  Dithi.

7.Kalindhi pulinaa  vasam , thulasi malya  dharinam,
Kalambodha prabham   Krishnam Nalinaksham maham   bhaje.

7.I  sing about the  lotus eyed  Krishna  , who shines like black water rich cloud,
Who lived on the banks of Yamuna river   , and who wears  Thulasi garland.

8.Padmajaa lalitha  pada  padmam , Padma  Vibhooshanam,
Padmanabham maham vandhe  , padmaksham padma  dharinam

8.I salute  that Padmanabha    who has lotus like eyes  , who holds the  lotus flower ,
Whose lotus like feet is   fondled by the  lotus born Lakshmi   and who is the ornament to lotus flower.
