The Lord of the seven mountains ,

Who is liked by all devotees,

Whose soul is the ocean of mercy,
lives in the Thiruvenkata mountain.

 

Charanam

 

Vivida alankaram bahu vida poojaam

Nava rathna shobitha vajra kireetaam

Kaushika yaga rakshitha ramavatharam

Kaliya nartana krishnavatharam

Krishna dasa prasanna govinda avatharam                                                           (Bhakthi)

 

 

The incarnation of Govinda showers grace on Krishna dasa,

Is decorated in various ways and is offered several types of worship,

Wears the shining diamond crown inlaid by the nine types of gems,

And protected the Yaga of Kaushika in his incarnation as Rama,
