antara 2
udho hamaro sandes madho se kahiyo
jai padmanabh ki jo krpa tin lok chayi

Meaning

The beauty of the land of Vraj has gone away.  All the green creepers of Jasmine flowers have dried up.
Here, while we, the cowherd damsels, are wiping the tears with Pallu, there, he is giving his love to Kubja. What kind of justice is this?
Sage Uddhava! please convey this message to our dear Madana.  May the milk of kindness of Lord Padmanabha, which encompasses all the worlds, shower on us too.

Meaning

Oh, Lord! With your lotus-like elegant arms, you welcome into your folds those who worship your feet.  Oh the supreme Lord to your followers! Protect me!
You are resplendent in wearing the crown encrusted with gems such as diamonds.  Enchanter of the hearts of a horde of cowherd damsels!
Oh, destroyer of evils! Oh, Madhava! Your form is like dark clouds.  You conquered the wicked Bhauma-the demon Naraka.  You are worshiped with great joy by the learned and eminent ones.  The beauty of thy form surpasses that of Cupid.  You possess rich and dark feet.  Oh lord, Giridhara! You held aloft the mountain.  You are the foe of demon Mura.
Your gait is more majestic than that of the lordly elephant. Oh lord of all!, you have Garuda-the enemy of the serpent as your vehicle.  You are adorned with yellow raiment and are served by Brahma.  Your neck is adorned with pure and gorgeous garlands.  Oh, brave warrior!  Your exploits of Madhuvana are incomparable.  Your face resembles that of the moon.
Lord Padmanabha! Please show me kindness.  I cherish in my heart, your lotus-like feet, which are venerated by Indra and others, and are caressed by goddess Bhudevi and Sridevi.  You enchant the whole world.  Your forehead shines with the mark of musk paste.  You put an end to the fear of cowherds, Oh lord Padmanabha!

Bhujagasayino Nama Managamal

Paramajanata Piha Kirttitam

Dahati Papmanam jala manjasa

Bhuvi sikhi yatha daru sancayam

Meaning

May the name of the lord reclining on the serpent bless us.  He has been glorified by all people.  He burns away the whole mass of sins immediately just like the fire burns away the forest of trees.
