gopesa! gopika-kanta! radha-kanta! namo ’stu te
I offer my unlimited pranamas unto You, O Krsna! You are the ocean of mercy, friend of the fallen, Lord of creation, and master of the cowherd community! You are Gopi-kanta, beloved of the gopis, and above all You are Radha-kanta, the beloved of Srimati Radhika!
tapta-kancana-gaurangi! radhe! vrndavanesvari!
vrsabhanu-sute! devi! pranamami hari-priye!
O Gaurangi, whose complexion is like molten gold! O Radhe! Queen of Vrndavana! O daughter of Vrsabhanu Maharaja! O Devi! O dearmost of Hari! Pranamas unto You again and again!
jayatam suratau pangor mama manda-mater gati
mat-sarvasva padambhojau radha-madana-mohanau
All glories to the all-merciful Sri Radha-Madana-mohana! Although I am lame, foolish and devoid of intelligence, Your lotus feet are my refuge and my everything!
divyad-vrndaranya-kalpa-drumadhah
srimad-ratnagara-simhasana-sthau
sri-sri-radha-srila-govinda-devau
presthalibhih sevyamanau smarami
I meditate upon Sri Sri Radha-Govinda-deva, who are seated beneath a kalpa-vrksa tree on an effulgent bejeweled simhasana in the supremely beautiful land of Vrndavana, where They are always being served by Their beloved sakhis, headed by Lalita and Visakha.
sriman rasa-rasarambhi vamsivata-tata-sthitah
karsan venu-svanair gopir gopinathah sriye ’stu nah
Sri Gopinatha, who originated the transcendental mellow of the rasa dance, always stands beneath the Vamsi-vata tree, attracting all the kisori-gopis with the sound of His flute, thereby showering me with auspiciousness.
namo nalina-netraya venu-vadya-vinodine
radhadhara-sudha-pana-saline vana-maline
I offer pranama unto He whose eyes are like lotus flowers, who merrily plays the flute, who is expert in drinking the nectar of Radhika’s lips, and who is adorned with a garland of forest flowers.
krsnaya vasudevaya haraye paramatmane
pranata-klesa-nasaya govindaya namo namah
Time and again I offer pranama unto Sri Krsna, who is the son of Vasudeva, and the remover of His devotees’ material attachments.
