Behold Him — the embodiment of peace, the knower of the universe's inmost heart, the beloved of Lakshmi, the all-pervading inner ruler.

He grants the boons His devotees seek and, overlooking their faults, arrives to protect them — riding Garuda, virtuous, deeply majestic and mighty, He moves unseen through the world and dances before those who sing His praise. Though He dwells in the forest hills, O wicked one — is there anyone, among all the people of the land, equal to this Venkata?

Unknown to the Vedas, unseen by lotus-born Brahma and the countless gods, the Lord of the universe — out of love for His devotees — left His three abodes and descended to earth in the Kali age. Sri Hari Himself, an ocean of countless virtues, accepts the service of devotees in this world, destroys sins, grants liberation, and stands smiling beautifully.

Husband of Lakshmi and Bhudevi, untouched by worldliness, easily reached by His devotees, beyond qualities and change — by heaven's own glory He bestows the priceless state and grants long life. As Parashurama He defeated every king at the battle's forefront — fiercely mighty, foremost among the noble, of flawless form — and by His grace He wipes away our flaws.

Filled with sorrowless bliss, His tender heart yearns for the joy of liberation — He shattered slumber, destroyed the vile demon, and kept the world safe and secure. Never merciless — He who reclines on the ocean, who lifted Mount Govardhana, who prospers the Yadus, crushed the demons, and delights Lakshmi — dwells on blessed Sheshadri hill.

Brahma the lotus-seated and Manmatha the mind-born are His two sons; the celestial river's daughter too is His own; His city itself is Vaikuntha, and Indra and the gods are His servants. Garuda is His vehicle and the serpent His couch — He is utterly spotless. I know of no ocean-king to match Him — O king of compassion dwelling on Venkatagiri, never forget to protect those who surrender to You, O glorious Vijaya Vittala, indwelling the wind-god!
