|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
Oh! Lord
Jagannatha, who recites melodious music on his flute, sitting on the river bank
of Kalindi/Yamuna, he is a honeybee who finds immense pleasure in the lotus
like faces of beautiful young maidens of Vraja. He is venerated by the deities such as
Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi/ Rama, Lord Shambhu/Shiva, Lord Brahma, Lord Indra/Amarapathi and
Lord Ganesha. Oh! Lord
Jagannatha along with his consort Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, I earnestly pray to
become the constant object of my humble vision.
Oh! Lord
Jagannatha, who holds flute on his left hand, beautiful hair locks decked with

reveals his presence through pastimes. Oh!
Lord Jagannatha along with his consort Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, I earnestly
pray to become the constant object of my humble vision.
Oh! Lord
Jagannatha, who resides on the shoreline of vast ocean, which is located close
to the peak of Nilachala Hills has the resemblance of gold, with his brother
mighty Lord Balabhadra and sister Subhadra in the middle, he provides an
opportunity to the Suras to venerate him. Oh! Lord Jagannatha along with Goddess
Sri Mahalakshmi, I earnestly pray to become the constant object of my humble
vision.
Oh! Lord
Jagannatha, who is the ocean of mercy, has the marvelous appearance like dark
clouds. He is the delight
of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi/ Rama and Goddess Sri Saraswathi/ Vani , his face

compassionate towards his ardent devotees and provides abundance of
boons. He is the ocean of
mercy and an honest associate to all the worlds. Oh! Lord Jagannatha along with Goddess

resemblance to full blown lotus flower petals, he dwells on the peak of
Nilachala hill and his lotus feet are placed on the head of Lord Anantha. He finds immense pleasure in the warm
embrace of Goddess Sri Radharani, which is like a cool pond. Oh! Lord Jagannatha along with Goddess
Sri Mahalakshmi, I earnestly pray to become the constant object of my humble
vision.
Oh! Lord
Jagannatha, I do not pray for Kingdom, or Kanaka/ gold, or Manikyam/precious
stones, or affluences. I do
not yearn for a beautiful bride or bridegroom as desired by the people. Oh! Lord Jagannatha, who is always
eulogized by Lord Shiva, I shall recite your glories and earnestly pray to
become the constant object of my humble vision.
Oh! Lord
Jagannatha, Oh! Surapathey,/Lord of Lords, kindly remove my insignificant
material bondage and existence. Oh!
Yadhavapathey/Lord of Yadhavas, kindly eradicates the vast ocean like sins of
mine. It is definite that
whoever surrenders to the lotus feet of Lord Jagannatha, would be
protected. Oh! Lord
Jagannatha along with Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, I earnestly pray to become the
constant object of my humble vision.
Whoever
recites the glorious verses of Sri Jagannatha Ashtakam in the hours of dawn
would be released from all the sin and attains the sacred abode of Lord Vishnu.
