TRANSLATION

1. Following the sequence found in Srimad Bhagavatam, I shall now describe the Supreme Lord Krsna. I shall do this in order to attain the perfection of transcendental bliss, by offering 108 obeisances to Krsna.

2. O Krsna, o Supreme spiritual entity, O Truth which underlies the universe, O ingredient of which the universe is composed, O You who are in one sense not different from everything, O You who are eternal, full of knowledge and bliss, O You Who appear according to your own sweet will, O You Who give shelter to all (who approach You), all glories unto You.

3. O Krsna, The Supreme Brahman, You contain the universe and You are the ultimate essence of the universe. You are without duality, full of truth, light, and bliss. You are self-effulgent and provide shelter for all of existence.

4. O unchanging and unlimited Krsna! You are always transcendentally pure and free from material mode. You are the effulgence and infallible Supreme Personality of Godhead. All glories unto You!

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

This is the first song to the Krsna Lila Stava.
