Sri Dhadhivamana Sthothram – Sri Vamana Puranam - Lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||










I shall meditate upon Lord Vamana who has the size of highest peak of Hemadhri, he has the luster of pure crystal, he is divine personified as Vamana/Dwarf who has the luster of full moon, and he has two hands, he is Devesha who is seated on lotus flower, he resides in the middle of Chandramanala, he has great effulgence, he has the brightness of crores of Adithya, he has the coolness of crores of moon, he resides in the middle of Chandhramandala, he is Vishnu and Acchyutha as well, he is imperishable, he is adorned in Sri Vathasam and precious gem Kausthubha, he is decked in various precious gem decorated ornaments, he is attired in majestic yellow garment, he is adorned in Vanamala/garland made of various flowers from the wood, he is extremely charming, his eyes has the resemblance to lotus flower petals, he is decked in marvelous crown, he is worshiped by sixteen celestial women as Apsaras and  Ganas, he is Janardhana who is the essence of Rig, Yaju, Sama, Atharva Veda, he is eulogized by Veda and Vedanga, he is reverentially worshiped by Lord Bhrama and all the deities, he is eulogized by illustrious Rishis and Sanakadhis, Lord Mahadeva who have three eyes dances before him, golden vessel full of curd rice is on the right, pot of nectar on both the hands, Adhokshaja should be worshiped in the early hours of dawn,  I shall meditate upon Lord Vamana who has pristine attractive limbs, holds curd rice in a golden vessel and  right hand full of curd , pot of nectar on the left hand, he guides us to cross all the miseries and sorrows of worldly existence.  Illustriou Bhramin/Dhvijoththama who reads or listens to the verses praising the splendor of Lord Vamana during the hours of dawn would attain abundance of grains, long life, wealth, good health, and refined knowledge.  I shall meditate upon Lord Vamana who is Bhramachari, he is lustrous and adorned in sacred thread across the chest, he is attired in loin cloth, he carries umbrella and a stick, his eyes has the resemblance to lotus flower petals.  I shall meditate upon Lord Vamana who is the purifier of souls, he is stunningly attractive, he is divine personified as Vatu, he symbolizes Nigama/Veda and he is eloquent, he conquered three worlds, his chest is covered in fur and he carries stick in his hand.  I shall meditate upon Lord Vishnu who is personified as Vamana along with Goddess Sridevi and Bhoodevi, who are decked in various precious ornaments all over the body; he is the provider of Bhukthi/devotion as well as Mukthi/liberation from repeated births. I shall repeatedly prostrate before Lord Vamana who is omnipresent, he is the provider of supreme intelligence, and whoever venerates Lord Vamana would attain abundance of wealth and grains.
