We all are craving for the sight of You, O Madhusūdana, Who is the quiet one! 3-4) O You, Who holds a new lotus, Who is dark in complexion, Who is beautiful, Who is decorated with Candrakusuma, Who rules the heart of group of Gopī, Who held Govardhana, Who roams in Vṛndāvana, Who holds a flute, Who is the supreme ruler, Who gives pleasure to Rādhā, Who destroyed Kamsa, Who is complete! I am bowing into Your feet which is the shelter of the unsheltered. O Janārdana, Who has yellow robes! Come close to me in this garden.
