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
lotus. Your auspicious attributes are sung by BRAHAMA 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 incarnated
as MANUJA-a human being as a sport. Your face shines like the spotless moon.
Oh progenitor of Cupid! Conquerer of the demon MURA! Your tresses are
adorned with lovely fragrant flowers. You shine with golden crown, encrusted
with diamond and other precious gems.
You have GARUDA as mount. Your benevolence surpasses even the dark rain
bearing clouds. You are the refuge of dejected ones. Shelter to those
who have conquered wordly 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.
