Oh Madhusudana, you skillfully vanquished demons Mushtika and Chanura. You are destroyer of evil in the world. You saved Gokulam by subduing Kaliya serpent and dancing on its hood.
You are our Lord with best virtues. You are the savior of righteous people. You are the unparalleled performer of countless heroic deeds. You are dear to pious sages and destroyer of demons. You are very handsome. Your sweet gestures delight the Gopikas of Vrajabhumi. They worship you whole-heartedly.
