Keeps on stealing the minds of pretty gopis again and again,

Dandapasodhyutha karair gopalair upashobhitham
Who shines by the nearness to Gopa boys who sing his songs.
Who follow all his actions and who hold stick and the rope,
Naradhadhyair munisreshtair veda vedantha paragai,
Preethi susnighdaya vacha sthuyamanam parathparam
And who is the god of gods whose praise is sung sweetly by sages ,
Well versed in Vedas and Vedangas like Narada.
Ya yenam chinthaye devam bhakthya samsthouthi manava,
Trisandhyam thasya thushto asou dadathi varameepsitham
Whichever man thinks about and sings the praise of God thus,
During dawn, noon and dusk with devotion would please Him,
And He would grant them all boons requested by them.
Rajavallabhathamethi bhaveth sarva jana priya,
Achala sriyamapnothi sa vagmi jayathe druvam
He would become friends of kings, liked by everybody,
Would get stable wealth and would become an orator.
