Sri Vishnu Vijaya Sthothram – lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||










The deities speaks “ We shall surrender at the lotus feet of  Lord Vishnu who is primordial, he is the Lord of Lords, he is the protector of the Universe and its living beings, he is Padmanabha who is the creator of lotus born Lord Bhrama, we shall repeatedly prostrate before  Lord Vishnu who has embodied as giant fish, we shall repeatedly prostrate before Lord Vishnu who has embodied as giant tortoise, we shall prostrate before Lord Vishnu who has embodied as Nrisimha/half-lion and half-man, afterwards the  glorious incarnation as Vamana/dwarf, we shall prostrate before Lord Vishnu who is personified as Bhargava Rama in order to annihilate the wicked Kshathriyas on the Earth, we shall prostrate before Lord Vishnu who is personified as Raghava Rama in order to destroy ten headed Ravana, we shall prostrate before Lord Vishnu who is personified as Krishna who has the complexion of dark clouds, annihilator of demon Pralamba,  we shall prostrate before Lord Vishnu who is personified as Lord Buddha, who lures the heart of Dhaithyas, we shall prostrate before Lord Vishnu whose impending incarnation as Kalki in order to destroy the wicked people on Earth, we shall repeatedly prostrate before Lord Vishnu who has embodied as Kroda/wild boar, we shall repeatedly prostrate before Lord Vishnu who takes various incarnations on each era in order to protect the Earth and reinstate the righteousness, your glorious incarnation  in order to protect the Universe and its living beings and crush the pride of demon Hiranyaksha, Oh! Deva,you have been always working for the welfare of the deities, kindly protect us, Oh! Devadeva, you have embodied as Universe and its living beings, you are the protector of the Universe and its living beings, you are absolute Bhramam, you have assumed various marvelous forms on each Yuga, you represents Hara who symbolizes Kalagni who causes mass destruction at the end of  Yuga, you are the cause of Universe and its living beings, you are the preserver of the same, you are omniscient, you represents past, present and future, you represents living and non- living things, you are all pervading, Oh! Deva, we have eulogized endless splendor with our petite knowledge, you are the ultimate refuge and safest heaven, and we shall surrender at your lotus feet.”


Vyasa speaks “ Lord Vishnu who has pleasing disposition was highly delighted after listening to the praising of deities with the sacred hymns, these are the propitious hymns of  Vijayasthothra, and it is inaccessible even for the deities in the three worlds,  whoever reads or listens to these glorious verses Devadeva/Lord of Lords for  hundreds and thousands of times on regular basis would get their desires fulfilled, it provides supreme wisdom and knowledge, ultimately highest of the merit known as liberation from repeated births.”
