Oh son of the cowherd chieftain Nanda! the source of joy! You are the sandal fragrance of the heart. Salutations to the Guru, the preceptor Who is Sai, who is the embodiment of Truth, Existence and Bliss. The One Who is beautiful with a lotus-like face, He Who is the Protector of cows, the cowherd boy Krishna. You are the one who is the Lord of the cowherd girl Radha and are the enchanting One. You are the one who holds the flute and the one who killed the demon Madhu.
