Eternally I worship Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is Nanda's son, who is Vraja's sole ornament, who breaks all sins into pieces, and who delights the devotees' hearts. I offer my respectful obeisances to the hero Lord Kṛṣṇa, whose head is decorated with peacock feathers, whose hand holds a melodious flute, and who is an ocean of Kāmadeva's pastimes.

Verse 2

I offer my respectful obeisances to lotus-eyed Lord Kṛṣṇa, who frees Kāmadeva of his pride, whose large eyes are very restless, and who shakes away the gopas' sadness. I offer my respectful obeisances to dark Lord Kṛṣṇa, whose lotus hand lifted Govardhana Hill, whose smiling glance is charming, and who ripped Indra's pride into shreds.

I offer my respectful obeisances to cheerful Lord Kṛṣṇa, who dries up all faults, makes all worlds prosper, and stays in the thoughts of all the gopa people.

Verse 5

I offer my respectful obeisances to the milk-thief Lord Kṛṣṇa, who removed the earth's burden, who is the captain of the ship to cross the ocean of birth and death, and who is Yaśodā's teenage son. I offer my respectful obeisances to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is Nanda's son, who casts crooked glances from the corners of His eyes, who always stays with the gopīs, and who day after day enjoys newer and newer pastimes.

Verse 6

I offer my respectful obeisances to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is a jewel-mine of transcendental qualities, a jewel-mine of transcendental blisses, a jewel-mine of mercy, who defeats the demigods' enemies, and who delights the cowherd people. I offer my respectful obeisances to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is a young hero of the cowherd people, who is a playful young rake, who is handsome and dark like a monsoon cloud, and whose yellow garments glisten like lightning.

Verse 7

I offer my respectful obeisances to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who delights all the cowherd people, who charms the devotees' lotus-hearts, who stays in forest groves, and who is splendid like a glistening sun. I offer my respectful obeisances to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who fulfills all desires, whose sidelong glances are charming arrows, whose flute music is nectar, and who is the amorous hero of the forest groves.

Verse 8

I offer my respectful obeisances to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who reclines on the charming couch of the wise gopīs' hearts, and who drank up a forest fire in Muñjāṭavī forest. I pray that whenever and however I sing His glories, Lord Kṛṣṇa will be merciful to me.

Verse 9

I pray that whoever reads or recites these eight prayers will be fervently devoted to Nanda's son, devoted birth after birth.
