Charanam
1.Kalabha Sundara gamana, Kasthuri Shobhithanana,
Nalina dalayatha nayana , Nandaa nandana,
Militha Gopa vadhoo jana, Meenanga koti mohana,
Dalitha samsara bandhana , Daruna vairi Nasana.
Charanam
1. He who walks with a pretty gait of an elephant , Who has a body shining like musk,
Who was eyes like petals of lotus, who is the son of Nanda,
Who merges with brides of Gopis , who is very pretty with a body like fish,
Who ties the broken domestic life, And who destroys his pitiful enemies.
2.Yajna, Yajna samrakshana , Yadava vamsabharana,
Yajna phala vitharana, Yami jana sarana,
Ajnana ghana sameerana, akhila lokaika karana,
Vijnana dalithavarana , Vedantha Vakhya pramana.
2.He who is Yajna himself , who protects the Yajna , the ornament of clan of Yadhavas,
Who distributes the results of Yajna , who is the protector of disciplined people ,
Who throws out solid ignorance, who is the cause of all the worlds,
Who chooses those who display knowledge and is the example of the words of Vedanthaa.
3.Vyathystha Padaravinda , viswa vandhitha Mukunda,
SAthya Khanda Bodhananda, sad guna brunda,
Prathyasthamitha bhedha gandha, palitha Nanda Sunanda ,
Nithyadha Narayana Theertha Nirmalananda Govinda.
3,He who has crossed lotus like feet, Who is Mukunda saluted by the universe,
Who gets joy in teaching about truth , who is surrounded by good characters,
Who has thrown out contrasts and arrogance Who loks after the well pleased Nanda,
Who is always the Govinda who grants pure joy to Narayana Theertha.
