vrindayai tulasi-devyai
I offer my repeated obeisances unto Vrnda, Srimati Tulasi Devi, who is very dear to Lord Kesava. O goddess,
you bestow devotional service to Lord Krsna and possess the highest truth.
priyayai keshavasya cha krishna-bhakti-prade devi satyavatyai namo namaha |
namo namaha tulasi! krishna-preyasi
O Tulasi, beloved of Krsna, I bow before you again and again. My desire is to obtain the service of Sri Sri
Radha-Krsna.
radha-krishna-seva pabo ei abhilashi |
je tomara sharana loy, tara vanchha purna hoy
Whoever takes shelter of you has his wishes fulfilled. Bestowing your mercy on him, you make him a resident
of Vrndavana.
kripa kori' koro tare brindavana-basi |
mor ei abhilash, bilas kunje dio vas
My desire is that you will also grant me a residence in the pleasure groves of Sri Vrndavana-dhama. Thus,
within my vision I will always behold the beautiful pastimes of Radha and Krsna.
nayane heribo sada jugala-rupa-rashi |
ei nivedana dharo, sakhir anugata koro
I beg you to make me a follower of the cowherd damsels of Vraja. Please give me the privilege of devotional
service and make me your own maidservant.
seva-adhikara diye koro nija dasi |
dina krishna-dase koy, ei jena mora hoy
This very fallen and lowly servant of Krsna prays, ''May I always swim in the love of Sri Radha and Govinda.
sri-radha-govinda-preme sada jena bhasi |
yani kani cha papani
By the circumambulation of Srimati Tulasi Devi all the sins that one may have committed are destroyed
at every step, even the sin of killing a brahmana.
brahma-hatyadikani cha tani tani pranashyanti pradakshinaha pade pade |
