English meaning
Pallavi
Realizing the relation between you and me.
I came running , Oh Krishna

Anupallavi
After observing billion and billions of penances.
I came running to see you , calling you “Oh Govinda” to Brindavan.

Charanam
Oh dream, which plays the flute, which makes the assembled gopis shy,
With their lovelorn eyes searching for you,
Making the lord of universe , break into a smile on his lips,
And keep beats, in turn making the girls dance,
For ions and ions making both of them mix like Sruthi and Laya,
And making them unify with you ., who is the essence of the Vedas,
And offering the divine love of supreme wisdom at your golden feet.
