(refrain)

jaya jaya nṛsiḿha sarveśa

bhayahara vīra prahlāda varada

(1)

mihira śaśinayana mṛganara veṣa  bahir-antasthala paripūrṇa

ādi nāyaka siḿhāsana rājita  bahuḷa guṇa gaṇa prahlāda varada

(2)

caṭula parākrama samaghana virahita  niṭala netra mauni praṇuta

kuṭila daitya tati kukṣi vidāraṇa  paṭu vajranakha prahlāda varada

(3)

śrī vanitā saḿśrita vāmāńka  bhāvaja koṭi pratimāna

śrī veńkaṭagiri śikhara nivāsa  pāvana caritā prahlāda varada

TRANSLATION

(Refrain): All Glories, All Glories to the Supreme Lord, Lord Nrsimhadeva! He is the destroyer of fear, strong, and is merciful to Prahlada Maharaja.

1. The sun and moon are His eyes. He appears as half man, half lion. He the complete Supreme Whole, present both internally and externally. His throne is the Great Serpent, Adi Sesanaga. He has countless transcendental qualities, and is merciful to Prahlada Maharaja.

2. He is very powerful and great. He is one without equals, such that even Lord Siva respectfully offers obeisances to Him. With His sharp and diamond-like nails, He killed the evil demon (Hiranyakasipu) by disemboweling him. He is merciful upon Prahlada Maharaja.

3. Sri Laksmi-Devi resides on His left lap. He is more beautiful than a million Cupids. He resides in Sri Venkatagiri, the abode of Lord Venkatesvara. His pastimes are the most pure. He is merciful upon Prahlada Maharaja.

Remarks/ Extra Information**:**

This bhajan is very popular amongst the worshippers of Sri Venkatesvara in South India and Carnatic musicians.

It is sung in Carnatic Raga Mohanam (equivalent to Raga Bhupali in the North Indian tradition).
