Sree bhooneelaaramanam bhaya haranam

 

He whose twin feet are worshipped by good people,

Who stays in the banks of the twin Cauvery rivers,

Who gave protection to Vibheeshana during his incarnation as Rama,

Is the blue consort of Sri Devi and Bhoo Devi  who removes fears.

 

Bhoo vaikunta nivasam lakshmi hrudaya nivasam

He who lives in the Vaikunta of earth, and also lives in the heart of Lakshmi,

Who is the Ranganatha who is worshipped by hands of Vaishnavas,

Who is the Krishna dasa who is dear to Ramanuja,

Lies on Adhi sesha has lotus like eyes and has the purest feet.
