Shri Govindashtakam श्री गोविन्दाष्टकं

श्री गोविन्दाष्टकं

 Shri Govindashtakam

by Adi Shankaracharya 

सत्यं ज्ञानमनंतं नित्यमनाकाशं परमाकाशम्  
गोष्ठप्राङ्गणरिङ्खणलोलमनायासं परमायासम्  ।
मायाकल्पितनानाकारमनाकारं भुवनाकारम्  
क्ष्माया नाथमनाथं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥१॥

Sathyam jnanam anantham nithyamanakasam paramakasam,
Goshta prangana ringana lolam anayasam paramayasam,
Maya kalpitha nanakara manakaram bhuvanakaram,
Kshmama nadha manadham, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 1

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who is truth, wisdom, eternal, stable, not ether bound and the eternal ether, Who is happy to crawl in cow sheds, is beyond problems and is the end of problems, Who due to illusion appears as without any form and with many forms, And who is of the universe, consort of Lakshmi and is without any lord. 1

मृत्स्नामत्सीहेति यशोदाताडनशैशव संत्रासम्  
व्यदितवक्त्रालोकितलोकालोकचतुर्दशलोकालिम्  ।
लोकत्रयपुरमूलस्तंभं लोकालोकमनालोकम्  
लोकेशं परमेशं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥२॥

Mruth sanamathsihethi yasodha thadana shaisava sam thrasam,

Lokesam paramesam, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 2

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who with a child like fear of Yasoda’s punishment when he ate mud, Showed her in his open mouth visible and invisible part of fourteen worlds, Who is the ultimate basis of the three worlds which are visible and not visible, And who is the lord of earth and the eternal goal thereof. 2

त्रैविष्टपरिपुवीरघ्नं क्षितिभारघ्नं भवरोगघ्नम्
कैवल्यं नवनीताहारमनाहारं भुवनाहारम् ।
वैमल्यस्फुटचेतोवृत्तिविशेषाभासमनाभासम्
शैवं केवलशांतं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥३॥

Trivishta paripuveeragnam, kshithi bharagnam, bhava rogagnam,
Kaivalyam nava neethaa haara manaahaaram bhuvanaharam,
Vaimalya sphuta chetho vruthi viseshabhaasa manabhasam,
Saivam kevala santham, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 3

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who killed the valorous enemies of devas, reduced the burden of earth, Who cures the sorrow caused by the day today life, Who is ever detached, who eats butter, who eats no food, who eats the earth, Who shines in the mind when it is clear but cannot be revealed by anything else, And who is peaceful, is peace and nothing else but peace. 3

गोपालं प्रभुलीलाविग्रहगोपालं कुलगोपालम्  
गोपीखेलनगोवर्धनधृतिलीलालालितगोपालम् ।
गोभिर्निगदित गोविंदस्फुतनामानं बहुनामानम्  
गोपीगोचरपथिकं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥४॥

Gopalam Leela vigraha gopalam Kula gopalam,

Gopir nigaditha govinda sphuta naamaanam bahu namananam,
Gopi gochara dhooram, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 4

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who looks after all beings in his playful form of cowherd, Who protects those who look after cows, who playfully lifted,The govardhana where gopis play and made gopa lads happy,
Whose name Govinda is clearly by the cows*, who has many names, And who always is beyond the reach of the ignorant**.
* The word could be translated as words also.
** The word could be translated as Gopis. 4

गोपीमंडलगोष्ठिभेदं भेदावस्थमभेदाभम्  
शश्वद्गोखुरनिर्घूतोद्धतधूलीधूसरसौभाग्यम्  ।
श्रद्धाभक्तिगृहीतानंदमचिन्त्यं चिंतितसद्भावम्  
चिंतामणिमहिमानं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥५॥

Gopi mandala goshtee bedham, bhedavastha bhedhabham,
Saswath gokhura nirdhathothkrutha dhooli sara soubhagyam,
Sradha bhakthi grahithananda chinthyam chinthida sadhbhavam,
Chinthamani mahimanam, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 5

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who is present in each and every group of gopis, who appears, In differing forms but actually is without difference. Whose pretty form is covered by the dust raised by the hooves of cows, Who is realized by attention and devotion in thought, who is beyond thought, And whose greatness is determined by the gem of individual’s thought. 5

स्नानव्याकुलयोशिद्वस्त्रमुपादायागमुपारूढम्
व्यदित्संतिरथ दिग्वस्त्रा ह्युपुदातुमुपाकर्षंतम् ।

सत्तामात्रशरीरं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥६॥

Snana kula yoshid vasthra mupadhayaga muparoodam,

Saththa mathra sareeram, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 6

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who climbed the tree along with cloths of women taking bath in the pond,Who wanted those who want their cloths back, to come close to the tree in the nude*, Who destroyed sorrow and passion, who is wise, who is at the end of wisdom, And who has a body that did not get disturbed by the senses. 6
* Come leaving everything 

कांतं कारणकारणमादिमनादिं कालमनाभासम्  
कालिंदीगतकालियशिरसि मुहुर्नृत्यंतं नृत्यंतम्  ।
कालं कालकलातीतं कलिताशेषं कलिदोषघ्नम्  
कालत्रयगतिहेतुं प्रणमत गोविंदं परमानंदम् ॥७॥

Kantham karana makarana adhi manadhim, kala manabhasam,

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who is pretty, cause of causes, primeval, without beginning and a form of time, Who danced again and again on the head of serpent Kaliya in the river Yamuna, Who is black in colour, ever present in time and destroys the evil effects of Kali, And who is the cause of the march of time from the past to the future. 7

वृंदावनभुवि वृंदारकगणवृन्दाराध्यं वंदेऽहम्  
कुंदाभामलमंदस्मेरसुधानंदं सुहृदानंदम्  ।

Vandhya sesha gunabdheem, pranamatha govindam paramanandham. 8

I salute that Govinda who is the extreme limit of happiness, Who in the land of Brindavan is being worshipped by crowd of worshipful devas, Whose nectar like smile is as pretty as jasmine flower, who gives happiness to his friends, Whose twin feet are worshipped by the heart of great and worshipful sages, And who is the sea of good qualities which are worshipped by all. 8
