O the one of black-bee-like dark hair,
O the one adorned with
Peacock tail feather,
O the one whose lustrous body
Is bluish like the flowers of kalaaya,
O the mighty one,
O the one who has tender affection
Towards one’s own devotees,
O the one who has lotus-like eyes
O the Lord of both Sri and Bhu,
O Hari, please take away
All my afflictions.
