Meaning
Who is not entranced in this universe by the enchanting melody of your flute?
Your form excels that of the Cupid; you manifested as a marvelous human form.
Oh, Nirjaksha! Even though the trees may be dry, they quickly sprout new leaves by listening. Even the herds of deer which are grazing, stand still like a picture while listening to you.
Of the lord of all! An embodiment of truth! The lion which is of the nature of killing the mighty elephant, forsaking its natural instinct, becomes serene by your side.
Oh the lord supreme! Even the hard rocks will melt by themselves by listening to the sound of your music. Oh, the vanquisher of the demons Mura! Sri Padmanabha! As such there is nothing strange that it is attractive to the hearts of women folks.
