O Lord of supernal opulence !
O Sanctifier of the universe !
O Sustainer of all beings !
Deign to bestow thy compassion on us.
O Lord all-powerful in maintaining righteousness ! (0)
*
In the ocean of world,
you are helsman, the sole saviour.
You are pacifier of distress and of bondage
caused to the earth which is filled with wealth.
You form the garland of love
spreading sweet smell of bliss
in the hearts of the devotees.
You are unique painter of all the arts.
O Ye dweller in the core of hearts !
O Abater of illusion !
Deign to destroy my sin by conferring welfare.
O Lord of supernal opulence ! (1)
*
You are Brahmā (Creator), Vishņu (Sustainer)
and the sky-haired God Śiva (Destroyer).
You are the celestial place in the path of virtues.
O Imperishable Lord !
You are the form of entire universe.
Having an incomparable figure,
You are lord of all the riches.
Recourse is thy foot which stirs the world
and wherein the immortal deities remained fearless.
O Lord of supernal opulence ! (2)
*
You are Brahma-Nāda, the Blissful Supreme Voice
spontaneously emerged with emotions.
Thy feet are worshipped by gods and seers.
You are the equality of oneness
for the knowers of spiritualism.
You are the prime lucidity of intellect of the noble.
O Ye verily leading me towards light from darkness,
kindly annihilate my inertia of murk.
O Scintillating Sun of all the worlds !
O Lord of supernal opulence ! (3)

You form the eternal tune of graceful musical flow.
You are the receptacle of auspiciousness and beauty.
Established You are with your own great Supreme Power.
You are comprehensible by pure devotion.
O Supreme Lord ! Gladdening my eyes,
deign to dispel my delusion.
O Supreme One among the noble ! (4)
*
You are the proper prop of the world.
You are all-pervading consciousness.
You are served and prayed by the knowers of reality.
You are Existence, Knowledge and Bliss.
O God of gods ! You are the abode of all divine deeds.
Pacifying grief in life and death,
Thy greatness confers ambrosia of immortality.
O Lord of divine excellence !
O Lord of supernal opulence ! (5)
