Manasa pooja karnarey manva
Antharayami paramathmako (Manasa)

Hey Man, You have to worship with your mind,
The divine soul who is well within you.

Anupallavi

Thanu manu dhanu sabu arapanu karumanu
Dhan daulath bandhu na avey antha kalame (Manasa)

Oh Man, you offer to him the body, the mind and all others,
For wealth, property and relation, do not come with you at the last moment.

Charanam

Ramavatharmey mahima dikaya
Krishnavatharmey leela dhikaya
Ramayanmey bhakthi sikaya
Geetha sarame mukthi marga dikaya
Sri krishnadasko darshan paya (Manasa)


You showed your power in the incarnation of Rama,
You showed your sports in incarnation of Krishna,
In Ramayana you taught us devotion,
In the summary of Gita, you showed us the way to salvation,
And Krishna dasa got to see you.
