उद्घाटिते मे नयने भवेतां वा निमीलिते ।

मग्नस्य मे कृष्णरसे भिन्नं स्याद्दर्शनं कथम् ।।३५४।।

Whether my eyes are open or closed, if I am immersed in your dark hue, how could I see anything different?

कृष्णोऽहमिति मत्वैव गृहीतं नाम ते मया ।

माधवो यद्यहं कृष्ण: कृष्ण त्वमसि माधव: ।।३५५।।

Thinking that I am Kr̥ṣṇa, I assumed your name.  If Mādhava is Kr̥ṣṇa, then, O Kr̥ṣṇa, you must be Mādhava.

कृष्णता दुर्निवारा ते सर्वान् गृह्णाति केशव ।

अजानन्नपि कौन्तेयस्त्वया नीत: स्वतां प्रभो ।।३५६।।

O Kr̥ṣṇa, your uncontrolled dark hue catches everyone.  Even Arjuna, though he did not know it, was transformed into you, O Lord.

“अविज्ञातं विजानतां विज्ञातमविजानताम्” ।

कृष्णत्वं तव वार्ष्णेय ममापि च जनार्दन ।।३५७।।

Those who claim to know do not, and those who do not claim to know do know.  Such is the dark hue of yours and mine, O Lord.

कृष्ण ते कृष्णतायां मे कृष्णताया विसर्जनम् ।

जायेत यदि गोविन्द स मे परम उत्सव: ।।३५८।।

If my dark hue will merge into your dark you, O Kr̥ṣṇa, that will be a great joyous occasion for me.

अतिशेतेऽखिलान् वर्णान् कृष्णता तव माधव ।

क इच्छेदपरं किञ्चिदमन्दो मधुसूदन ।।३५९।।

O Mādhava, your dark hue exceeds all other colors.  What else would a wise person wish for, O Madhusūdana.

आकाशवत्त्वं गोविन्द कृपयावृणुषे जगत् ।

मेघवत् करुणावारिपूरं पूरयसे धराम् ।।३६०।।

O Krishna, like the sky you cover the world with your compassion.  Like a cloud you fill the earth with the rushing waters of your kindness.

जलवज्जगतस्तृष्णां शीतल: शमयाधुना ।

वायुवत् प्राणद: प्राणो लोकं प्राणयसेऽखिलम् ।।३६१।।

Quench the thirst of the world like water, O Cool Krishna.  Like the life-giving breath, the wind, you enliven the whole world.

धरेव वत्सलो नाथ लोकानामाश्रयो हरे ।

सूर्यवत्तेजसा सिञ्च धरणीं जगदीश्वर ।।३६२।।

Like the earth, O Lord, you are the loving support of the world.  O Lord, like the sun, sprinkle the earth with your brilliance.

त्वमाकाशोऽसि मेघस्त्वं जलं त्वमसि माधव ।

वायुस्त्वं धरणी च त्वमादित्यस्त्वं तथा हरे ।।३६३।।

You are the sky and you are the cloud and the water, O Mādhava.  You are the wind, the earth and the sun, O Krishna.

तवैवैतानि रूपाणि जगदाधार केशव ।

धृत्वा त्वं कुरुषे नित्यं पालनं जगतो हरे ।।३६४।।

Support of the World, O Krishna, these are your own forms, and holding those forms you always take care of the earth.
