|ചരണം-1|

കാർമുകിൽ വടിവോ തിരുമുടിയോ

കാരുണ്യ കടലോ തിരുമിഴിയോ

തിലാസുമന് തോൽക്കുന്ന നാസികയും സന്ധ്യ

കുങ്കുമം കുടഞ്ഞിട്ടു ചുണ്ടുകളും...  കൃഷ്ണാ ...

|ചരണം-2|

നാണം വിരിയും നുണക്കുഴി

നല്ല താമര പൂവാം തിരുമുഖവും

പ്രിമോടെ രാധ മയങ്ങുന്ന മാറിൽ

നവ ചമ്പകത്തിന് പൂമാല ... കൃഷ്ണാ ...

|ചരണം-3|

പോന്ന ഓടകുഴലിന് പ്രണവ മന്ത്രം

പ്രാണനാം രാധ തൻ  കാമ മന്ത്രം

താമര മോട്ടോ കൈ അഴകോ

ത്രൈലോക്യ സുന്ദരൻ എന്റെ കണ്ണൻ .. കൃഷ്ണാ ....

|ചരണം-4|

ഭക്‌തർ നമിക്കുന്ന പാധ പദ്മം  

സന്താന ഗോപാല കൃഷ്ണ രൂപം

പൂവെണ്  തൻ കൊതിക്കുന്ന പുണ്യ രൂപം

കേശാദിപാധം അതി മോഹനം  ..

കൃഷ്ണാ...

Summary :        This beautiful devotional lyric paints a vivid, head-to-toe description of Lord Krishna's enchanting physical appearance. His hair is compared to dark rain clouds, his eyes to a vast ocean of mercy, and his lips to the vibrant crimson hues of the evening twilight. He possesses a charming, shy smile with dimples and a serene lotus-like face, with a fresh champaka garland adorning his chest where Radha reposes in deep love. The divine music from his golden flute resonates like the cosmic primordial sound, completely captivating the three worlds and acting as a love chant for his soulmate, Radha. Revered by all devotees, his sacred lotus feet and his benevolent form as Santhana Gopala Krishna are celebrated as utterly beautiful and captivating from head to toe.

Charanam 1: The verse describes the enchanting physical form of Lord Krishna. His divine hair (thirumudi) resembles the dark, rain-bearing clouds, and his eyes (thirumizhi) are like a vast ocean of compassion. His nose is so beautiful that it outshines the delicate sesame flower (thilaasuman), and his lips look as vibrant as if the crimson saffron (kumkumam) of the evening twilight has been sprinkled upon them.

Charanam 2: This verse highlights his charming expressions and adornments. He possesses an endearing dimple that appears when he smiles shyly, and his sacred face (thirumukham) is as beautiful as a blooming lotus flower. Upon his chest, where Radha reposes in deep love, rests a fresh garland made of fragrant champaka flowers.

Charanam 3: This verse focuses on his divine music and unparalleled beauty. The sacred melody from his golden flute resonates with the primordial cosmic sound (pranava manthram), acting as a chant of pure desire for his beloved Radha. His hands are as graceful as lotus buds, making him the most beautiful being in all the three worlds.

Charanam 4: The final verse celebrates his supreme spiritual form. He possesses sacred lotus feet (paadha padhmam) that are revered and worshiped by all his devotees. Appearing in the benevolent form of Santhana Gopala Krishna, his holy presence is so exquisite that even the softest flower stalks crave its touch. From head to toe (keshaadhipaadham), his entire form is utterly captivating and beautiful.
