Who sometimes fervently
plays His flute on the banks of the Yamuna river in Sri Vrindavana, who is like
a bumblebee that blissfully tastes the lotus faces of the Vraja-gopis, and whose
feet are worshipped by great personalities such as Laksmi, Shiva, Brahma, Indra,
and Ganesha -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

Who on the shore of the
great ocean resides in a palace situated on the gold-like crest of Nilachala Hill
accompanied by His powerful brother Baladevaji and between Them, His sister Subhadra,

When Jagannatha's Ratha-yatra

be the object of my vision.

Who is the crown-jewel of
transcendence, whose eyes are like the petals of a fully-opened blue lotus, who

I do not pray to Jagannatha
for a kingdom, nor for gold, jewels, wealth, or even for a beautiful wife as desired
by all men. My only prayer is that Sri Jagannatha-deva, whose splendid glories
are always sung by Shiva, be the constant object of my vision.

O master of the demigods!
Quickly deliver me from this worthless worldly existence. O Lord of the Yadus!
Purge me of my limitless host of sins. Aho! You have promised to bestow Your feet
upon the fallen and shelterless -- O Jagannatha Swami, please be the object of
my vision.

Different Translation
"Sometimes in great
happiness Lord Jagannatha, with His flute, makes a loud concert in the groves
on the banks of the Yamuna. He is like a bumblebee who tastes the beautiful lotus-like
faces of the cowherd damsels of Vraja, and His lotus feet are worshiped by great
personalities such as Lakshmi, Shiva, Brahma, Indra and Ganesha. May that Jagannatha
Svami be the object of my vision."
"In His left hand Lord
Jagannatha holds a flute. On His head He wears the feathers of peacocks and on
His hips He wears fine yellow silken cloth. Out of the corners of His eyes He
bestows sidelong glances upon His loving devotees and He always reveals Himself
through His pastimes in His divine abode of Vrindavana. May that Jagannatha Svami
be the object of my vision."
"Residing on the shore
of the great ocean, within a large palace situated upon the crest of the brilliant,
golden Nilachala Hill, along with His powerful brother Balabhadra, and in the
middle of Them His sister Subhadra, Lord Jagannatha bestows the opportunity for
devotional service upon all godly souls. May that Jagannatha Svami be the object
of my vision."
"Lord Jagannatha is
an ocean of mercy and He is beautiful like a row of blackish rain clouds. He is
the storehouse of bliss for Lakshmi and Sarasvati, and His face is like a spotless
full-blown lotus. He is worshiped by the best of demigods and sages, and His glories
are sung by the Upanishads. May that Jagannatha Svami be the object of my vision."
"When Lord Jagannatha
is on His Ratha-yatra cart and is moving along the road, at every step there is
a loud presentation of prayers and songs chanted by large assemblies of brahmanas.
Hearing their hymns Lord Jagannatha is very favorably disposed towards them. He
is the ocean of mercy and the true friend of all the worlds. May that Jagannatha
Svami, along with His consort Lakshmi, who was born from the ocean of nectar,
be the object of my vision."
"He is the ornament
of the head of Lord Brahma and His eyes are like the full-blown petals of the
lotus. He resides on the Nilachala Hill, and His lotus feet are placed on the
heads of Anantadeva. Lord Jagannatha is overwhelmed by the mellows of love and
He becomes joyful in the embracing of the body of Srimati Radharani, which is
like a cool pond. May that Jagannatha Svami be the object of my vision."
"I do not pray for
a kingdom, nor for gold, rubies and wealth. I do not ask for an excellent and
beautiful wife as desired by all men. I simply pray that Jagannatha Svami, whose
glories are always sung by Lord Shiva, be the constant object of my vision."
"O Lord of the demigods,
please quickly remove this useless material existence I am undergoing. O Lord
of the Yadus, please destroy this vast ocean of sins which has no shore. Alas,
this is certain that Lord Jagannatha's lotus feet are bestowed upon those who
feel themselves fallen and have no shelter in this world but Him. May that Jagannatha
Svami be the object of my vision."
