Sri Krishna Sthothram by Maharishi Narada - Naradha Pancharathram – Lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||













I shall meditate upon supreme Lord Krishna who has the appearance of freshly formed dark clouds, he is attired in marvelous yellow silk garments, he symbolizes joy, he is charismatic, he is pure, he is Srikrishna/who is inseparable from Sri, he is beyond perception, he is the Lord of Radharani, he is the dearest soul of Radharani, he is dearest child of cowherd/Yasodha/Ballavisutha, his lotus feet are served by Radharani, he blissfully rests on the large raised bosom of Radharani, he always follows Radharani, he is most cherished by Radharani, he has stolen the heart of Radharani, he is the soul of Radharani, he is supreme Lord who symbolizes wealth and happiness, he is the source of Universe and its living beings, therefore I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Srikrishna.  He blissfully resides in the middle of  lotus like heart of Radharani, he always showers auspiciousness to his worshiper, he is always accompanied by Radharani, he is the protector of Universe and its living beings, he is meditated by the Yogis, he is attainable through strict Yogic practices, he is Siddheshvara who is the provider of various supernatural powers to the worshiper who approaches through strict Yogic practices, he is deserved to be meditated with strict austerities and purity, he is divine personified, he is primeval deity, he is deserved to be served always, he is worshiped by ascetics, he is worshiped by Bhrama and Adishesha, he is deserved to be worshiped, he is devoid of properties/Nirguna, he is absolute Bhramam, he is divine personified who is eternal, he is unblemished, he is devoid of desires, he is Paramathman/supreme spirit, he is divine, he is absolute truth, he is eternal and not perceivable through senses, he is primeval Lord who is the cause of the Universe and its living beings, he is the source of Universe and its living beings, he is Parathpara/supreme deity, he is supreme Lord who is attainable to Yogis, he is supreme spirit personified on Earth, I shall prostrate before the Lord of Lords who is Parathpara, personified as cowherd with stick in hand on Earth, above are the glorious verses should be recited or listen during the hours of dawn  followed with strict austerity or purity, it is doubtless that it would liberate the souls and provides highest of the pieties like sincere devotion to Lord Hari, opportunity to engage selfless service to Lord Hari in the sacred lands of Vraja, good health and welfare.
