Meaning:

Srimannarayana, Oh Lord, I bow before Your Lotus Feet! 
Let me be blessed with the grant of Your Asylum! 

Oh Lord, the glow in your face is as radiant 
and tender as a lotus flower; 
You are the love of Goddess Lakshmi; 
You, the one who flies by Garuda Vaahana; 

Oh Lord, so sacred are your Lotus Feet; 
         Your Lotus Feet are my Asylum! 
You, the Lord of the Seven Hills, 
         I bow before You, to grant me salvation, mukti or moksha!! 

Oh Lord, You are the 'Purushottama' and the 'Paramapurusha'; 
You are the grantor of salvation to the learned and saints; 
You are supreme of all the dieties; 
You are the highest and biggest, yet the tiniest of the tiniest; 
You, the Lord of the Seven Hills, 

         I bow before You, to grant me salvation, mukti or moksha!!
