namas te narasimhaya
I offer my obeisances to Lord Narasimha, who gives
joy to Prahlada Maharaja and whose nails are like
chisels on the stonelike chest of the demon
Hiranyakasipu.

ito nrisimhah parato nrisimho
Lord Nrsimha is here and also there. Wherever I go
Lord Nrsimha is there. he is within the heart and is
outside as well. I surrender to Lord Nrsimha, the
origin of all things and the supreme refuge.
yato yato yami tato nrisimhah bahir nrisimho hrdaye nrisimho nrisimham adim sharanam prapadye |

tava kara-kamala vare
O Kesava! O Lord of the universe! O Lord Hari, who
have assumed the form of half-man, half-lion! All
glories to you! Just as one can easily crush a wasp
between one's fingernails, so in the same way the body
of the wasplike demon Hiranyakasipu has been ripped
apart by the wonderful pointed nails on your beautiful
lotus hands.
