Translation

Verse 1

O Kṛṣṇa who went to King Bhiṣmaka's kingdom filled with many visiting kings, O Kṛṣṇa worshiped by the hosts of demigods, O prideless Kṛṣṇa, . . .

Verse 2

. . . O Kṛṣṇa who delighted the people of Mathurā, O Kṛṣṇa whose glory tore apart Your enemies, O Kṛṣṇa who fled from Kālayavana, O Kṛṣṇa who led Kalayāvana to the moment of his death, . . .

Verse 3

expert at speaking joking words.. . . O Kṛṣṇa who enjoys a festival of pastimes in Your own abode, O Kṛṣṇa who kills the demons, O Kṛṣṇa who stays in Dvārakā, O Kṛṣṇa most learned at speaking joking words, . . .

Verse 4

saint.. . . O Kṛṣṇa who entered Mucukunda's abode, O Kṛṣṇa who pretended to tremble in fear of Kālayavana, O Kṛṣṇa who entered a mountain cave, O Kṛṣṇa who was seen by the sleeping king, . . .

Verse 5

. . . O Kṛṣṇa who was followed by the yavana king, O Kṛṣṇa who hid from the yavana king, O Kṛṣṇa who was merciful to Mucukunda, O Kṛṣṇa whose effulgence illumined the darkness, . . .

Verse 6

. . . O Kṛṣṇa who used Mucukunda's glance as a weapon to kill Kālayavana, O Kṛṣṇa whom Mucukunda's heart yearned to see, O Kṛṣṇa who mercifully fulfills Your devotees' desires, . . .

Verse 7

. . . O Kṛṣṇa who killed millions of yavana soldiers in battle, O Kṛṣṇa who won their booty, O Kṛṣṇa who was pursued by Jarāsandha, O Kṛṣṇa who left the booty behind, . . . .

Verse 8

. . . O Kṛṣṇa who desired to flee from Jarāsandha, who was eager to defeat You, O Kṛṣṇa who climbed to the summit of Mount Pravarṣaṇa and then jumped from it to the ground, . . .

Verse 9

. . . O auspiciousness of the the Yādava's city in the ocean, O Kṛṣṇa glorified by everyone in all the worlds, O Kṛṣṇa who stays in Vraja, O son of Vraja's king, glory to You!
