Kanaka  kireetam  , karunyamrutha

Lochana  Yugalam , kunthala bharavum

Makara  kathila nasa  putavum

Mandasmitha  ruche   kanakenam

 

Golden crown  , the  two eyes filled

With nectar  of mercy, the weight  of hair on head,

The ear studs  resembling fish, the  nasal   ornaments

Along with   a slow smile  , I want to see

 

Gala thala  vilasina thulasi   dalavum

Jala dhara  niramaam  thirumei  vadivum

Trikkara tharil  vilangunna sankha

Gadhari  Sarojam    Kkanakenam

 

The  thulasi leaf where  the hear  and neck shines

The form of divine  body of colour  of water  filled  cloud

And the conch , mace  ,  chakra   as well as lotus flower

Which shines in his divine  hand , I want  to see

 

Sri Vathsangitha vakshasi kausthubha

Vana mala  dhara peethambaravum

Vaadeedathoru  rathnam thadavina

Kanchana  kanchikal  kanakenam

 

The Kaushubha  and forest  garland  worn over

The chest  with sri vathsa, the yellow silk,

The golden girdle   ornamented   with,

The never fading gems, I would like to see.

 

Ramba thulyam   thudayinayum  thava

Janga yugalam mani noopramum

Jambaraathi  mukhamara  vandhitha

Pada  yugalam, mama kaanakenam

 

The two thighs equal to Ramba and your two shanks,

And your   jem studded  anklets

Your proud face  and two feet  ,

Which are  saluted by devas, I want to see
