I bow to Santana Gopala, of infinite power, the god who is the lord of gods, the one worshipped by all worlds, the bestower of children, the remover of sins, Hari, the giver of great meritorious fruits.
देवा ऊचुः - त्वमेव ब्रह्म परमं त्वमेव पुरुषोत्तमः । त्वमेव सर्वलोकानां स्रष्टा कर्ता नमोस्तु ते ॥२॥
devā ūcuḥ - tvameva brahma paramaṃ tvameva puruṣottamaḥ | tvameva sarvalokānāṃ sraṣṭā kartā namostu te ||2||
The gods said: You alone are the supreme Brahman. You alone are the supreme person. You alone are the creator and maker of all worlds. Salutations to you.
