Translation
O Lord Kṛṣṇa, Lord Kṛṣṇa, Your opulent mysticism is inconceivable. You are
the supreme, original person, the cause of all causes, immediate and remote, and
You are beyond this material creation. Learned brāhmaṇas know [on the basis of
the Vedic statement sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma] that You are everything and
that this cosmic manifestation, in its gross and subtle aspects, is Your form.

Translation
You are the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the controller of everything. The
body, life, ego and senses of every living entity are Your own self. You are the
Supreme Person, Viṣṇu, the imperishable controller. You are the time factor, the
immediate cause, and You are material nature, consisting of the three modes
passion, goodness and ignorance. You are the original cause of this material
manifestation. You are the Supersoul, and therefore You know everything within
the core of the heart of every living entity.

Translation
O Lord, You exist before the creation. Therefore, who, trapped by a body of
material qualities in this material world, can understand You?

Translation
O Lord, whose glories are covered by Your own energy, You are the Supreme
Personality of Godhead. You are Saṅkarṣaṇa, the origin of creation, and You are
Vāsudeva, the origin of the caturvyūha. Because You are everything and are
therefore the Supreme Brahman, we simply offer our respectful obeisances unto
You.

Translation

Appearing in bodies like those of an ordinary fish, tortoise and hog, You exhibit
activities impossible for such creatures to perform — extraordinary,
incomparable, transcendental activities of unlimited power and strength. These
bodies of Yours, therefore, are not made of material elements, but are
incarnations of Your Supreme Personality. You are the same Supreme
Personality of Godhead, who have now appeared, with full potency, for the
benefit of all living entities within this material world.

the supreme good. O most famous descendant and controller of the Yadu
dynasty, O son of Vasudeva, O most peaceful, let us offer our obeisances unto
Your lotus feet.

Translation
Henceforward, may all our words describe Your pastimes, may our ears engage
in aural reception of Your glories, may our hands, legs and other senses engage
in actions pleasing to You, and may our minds always think of Your lotus feet.
May our heads offer our obeisances to everything within this world, because all
things are also Your different forms, and may our eyes see the forms of
Vaiṣṇavas, who are nondifferent from You.
