Sree Damodarashtakam

Namamishvaram sachidaananda rupam
Lasat kundalam gokule bhrajamanam
Yeshoda-bhiyolukhalad dhavamanam
Paramrishtam atyantato drutya gopya 1

Rudantham muhur netra-yugmam mrjantam
Karambhoja-yugmena satanka-netram
Muhu shvasa-kampa-trirekhanka-kantha-
Sthitha-graivam damoaram bhakthi-baddham 2

itidrak sva-lilabhir ananda-kunde
Sva-ghoisham nimajjantam akhyapayantam
Tadiyeishita-gyeishu bhaktair jitatvam
Puna prematas tam shatavrtti vande 3

Varam deva mokisham na mokishavadhim va
Na canyam vrine ‘ham vareishad apiha
Idam the vapur natha gopala-balam
Sada me manasy avirastam kim anyai 4

Idam te mukhambhojanam atyanta-nilair
Vrtam kuntalai snigdha-raktaish ca gopya
Muhush cumbitam bimba-raktadharam me
Manasy avirastam alam lakisha-labhai 5

Namo Deva Damodaranta Vishno
Praseeda Prabho dukha-jalabhi-magnam
Kripa-drishti-vrishtyati-dinam batanu
Grhaneisha mam agyam edhay akishi-drshya 6

Kuveratmajau baddha-murtyaiva yadvat
Tvaya mocitau bhakthi-bhajau krtau ca
Tatha prema-bhakthim svakam me prayaccha
Na moksihe graho me ‘sti damodareha 7

Namastesthu damne sphurad-dipti-dhamne
Tvadiyodarayatha vishvasya dhamne
Namo radhikayai tvadiya-priyayai
Namo ‘nanta-lilaya devaya tubhyam 8
