Meaning
Oh Sarasiruhanabha! Protect me.
Your story is most sacred, Oh compassionate Lord! You are encompassed by celestials and sages. May you be victorious.
You repose on king serpent. Your eyes are beautiful and lively like a lotus. Your auspicious attributes are sung by Brahma and Indra. Please annihilate my miseries. Oh my Lord! Please show the path of good fortune to me just as you blessed Arjuna (the son of Pandu). You are adorned with shining yellow raiment.
You destroyed demons in battle. Your form is exquisite. You are incarnated as Manuja (a human being as a sport.) Your face shines like a spotless moon. Oh, progenitor of Cupid! Conqueror of the demon Mura! Your tresses are adorned with lovely fragrant flowers. You shine with a golden crown, encrusted with diamond and other precious gems.
You have Garuda as a mount. Your benevolence surpasses even the dark rain-bearing clouds. You are the refuge of dejected ones. Shelter to those who have conquered worldly attachments like wife, children, etc. You are the beloved of cowherds who surrounded you when you resided in the forest among them. You are in the company of Baladeva and you vanquished Narakasura.
