Come Krishna. Come God with the colour of gem,
Come with your lotus flower like steps,
come within a second, come.

Come keeping lotus like steps in a slow gait,
Oh Lad come with your braided and tied hair shaking,
Come oh fresh little descendent of a cow herd.

Come with your steps praised by Vedas,
Come to live in my heart forever,
Come singing with your dancing steps, come.

Oh God who makes us your own ,come,
Oh Thief who used to steal the minds of Gopis , come,
Come jumping to show your form, come.

Oh God who stood on a snake come step by step,
Oh God who answered Hiranya , come,
Come with steps that remove ills , come.

5.Oh petty one who sleeps on banyan leaf come,
Oh God who used to dance on a snake , come,
Oh God who is oldest for all three worlds, come,
CXome with the steps that grant salvation, come.
