1) tumi sarveśvareśvara, brajendra-kumāra!

O youthful prince of Vraja, You are the controller of all controllers. By Your whims the universe is created and destroyed.
2) tava icchāmata brahmā korena sṛjana
tava icchāmata viṣnu korena pālana
tava icchāmata viṣnu korena pālana
By Your wish Lord Brahmā creates, by Your whims Lord Viṣṇu maintains,
3) tava icchāmate śiva korena saṁhāra
tava icchāmate māyā sṛje kārāgāra
tava icchāmate māyā sṛje kārāgāra
by Your wish Lord Śiva destroys, and by Your wish māyā creates the prison of the world.
4) tava icchāmate jīver janama-maraṇa
samṛddhi-nipāte dukha sukha-saṅghaṭana
samṛddhi-nipāte dukha sukha-saṅghaṭana
By Your wish the living entities are born and are killed.

They develop and they are degraded in different stages of happiness and pain all by Your sanction.
6) tumi to' rākhaka ār pālaka āmāra

tomāra caraṇa vinā āśā nāhi āra
You are my protector and maintainer. I have no other wish but to attain Your feet.

tomāra icchāya āchi nirbhara koriyā
By my own endeavor I have no hope. I am completely dependent, on Your desires.
