Shri Madanagopalashtakam Meaning:
O Madana Gopala, please place Your lotus feet, which are marked with a thunderbolt, lotus, conch shell, water pot, and fish, which eclipse all splendors, and which with soft soles have conquered Vrndavana forest, in my heart. Please protect me, for I am now Your home. || 1 ||
With every step splendid garlands of the cooling moonlight of Your toenail-moons and the words of Your talkative anklets bring happiness to the path of my ears, eyes, and breath. O Madana Gopala, please protect me, for I am now Your home. || 2 ||

You place a flute on the red of Your lips, which are worshipped by the splendor of Your smile and decorated with the effulgence of teeth that defeat the splendour of rubies. O Madana Gopala, whose pastimes cannot be understood by the people, please protect me, for I am now Your home. || 4 ||
