English rendition

Lord Krishna, He of lotus eyes, plays His flute adeptly. A peacock plume makes His monsoon-blue body more lovely. He charms a host of Cupids with His unsurpassed beauty. Govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi

His limbs can interchangeably fill their operations. He underpins and oversees the complete creation. His dazzling, wise, eternal form spreads jubilation. Govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi
