Govinda Ashtakam [2]

Govindashtakam
Translated by P. R. Ramachander

Chidanandhaa karam sruthi sarasa saram samaras am,
Niradharaadharam bhavajaladhi param para gunam,
Ramagreevaharam Vruja vana viharam haranutham,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 1

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who is the form of divine joy, Who is the meaning of Vedas,
Who looks every body equally, Who is the support to the support less,
Who is the other shore to the sea of birth, who has divine qualities,
Who is the garland of Lakshmi, Who wanders in Vruja forest and one praised by Shiva.

Mahambodshi sthanam sthira chara nibhnanam, divi japam,
Sudhadhaara panam, Vihaga pathi yanam, Yamaratham,
Manognam Sugnanam Muni jana nidhanam, Dhruva padam,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 2

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who lives in the great sea, the cause of all moving and unmoving things,
Whose name is chanted by devas, who is the one who supports those who drink nectar,
Who travels on the lord of birds, Who is partial to those who control their senses,
Who is pretty, Who has good character, who is the home of saints and who is stable.

Dhiyo dherair dheyayamsravana puta peyam yathivarai-,
Maha vakyair gneyam, tribhuvana vidheyam vidhiparam,
Mano maanameyam sapadhi hrudhi neyam navathanum,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 3

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who is meditated boldly by the wise, who is the sweet dish to the ears,
Who is known to sages by great sayings, Who keeps the three worlds under him,
Who is the ruler of everything, who cannot be adequately known by the mind,
Who has to be thought by the mind and who has a new body.

Mahaa maya jalam vimala vana malam mala haram,
Suphalam Gopalam nihatha sisupalam sasi mukham,
Kalatheetham, kaalam gathi jitha maraalam, mura ripum,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 4

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who is a great magician, who wears a pure forest garland, who destroys sins,
Who has a pretty head, is a cow herd, killed Sisupala and has a moon like face,
Who is beyond arts, who is time, who walks seriously and destroyer of Mura.

Nabho bimba spheetham nigama gana geetham, sama gathim,
Suroughe sampreetham dithi jana vipareetham purisayam,
Giraam panthatheetham swaditha nava neetham nayakaram,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 5

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who is spread like a sky. Who is sung be Vedas, who has same balance,
Who likes devas, enemy of asuras, who sleeps on snake,
Who is beyond spoken words, who enjoys eating butter, who protects Dharma.

Paresam Padmesam Shiva kalajesam, shivakaram,
Dwijesam, devesam thanu kutilakesam, kali haram,
Khagesam Nagesam, Nikhila bhuvanesam Naga dharam,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 6

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who is lord of the divine, lord of lotus, lord of Shiva and Brahma, who does good,
Who is the lord of twice born and devas, lord with curly hair, destroyer of evil of Kali,
Who is the Lord of the birds, snakes, all the worlds and is supported by snake.

Rama kantham kantham bhava bhaya bhayantham Bhava sukham,
Durasantham santham nikhila hrudhi bhantham bhuvanapam,
Vivadantham dantham manuja nijayantham sucharitham,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 7

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who is the consort of Lakshmi, who is pretty, who destroys fear as well as fear of life,
Who destroys evil desires, who is peaceful, who stands in all hearts,
who protects the world,
Who is at the end of argument, who is free of everything, destroys asuras
and has a good story.

Jagajjyeshtam Sreshtam sura apthika nishtamvaravaham,
Balishtam bhooyishtam TRibhuvana varishtam vara vaham,
Swanishtam Dharmishtam guru gana garishtam Guru varam,
Sada tham Govindam parama sukha kandam Bhajatha re. 8

Sing about Govinda who is the store house of all pleasures,
Who precedes the world, who is very great, who is close to Indra, lord of Yaga,
Who is powerful, Who is with fame, Who is the best of three worlds, who carries boons,
Who is self controlled, follows dharma, who is greater than all teachers,
Who is the blessed Guru.

Gada paner atha duritha dalanam, dukha samanam,
Vishuddhathma sthothram padathi manujao yasthu sathatham,
Sa bhukthwa bhogougham chiramiha thathopastha vijino,
Varam vrushnosthanam vrujathi khalu vaikunda bhuvanam. 9

That pure human being who reads this prayer without break,
Of Vishnu, which destroys sorrow and ends sufferings,
He would enjoy great pleasures in this world for a long time,
And get all his sins destroyed and reach Vaikunta, the abode of Vishnu.
