pranamami sada prabhupada-padam [1]

I am offering obeisance to Prabhupad (Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur), whose holy lotus feet are worshipped by millions of pious souls, who is the establisher of the religion of the age (Krishna-sankirtan), who is the presiding divine successor (at the Visva-Vaishnava-Raja Sabha, the Universal Assembly of Vaishnavs), and who fulfils the desires of the dispellers of all fears – I offer obeisance at his holy lotus feet. I eternally offer obeisance to the radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.

He is the master of the great souls enriched with flourishing devotional life; he is very merciful to fallen souls, being their only refuge; he is the cheater of cheats, the revealer of the path. I offer obeisance at his inconceivable lotus feet. I eternally offer obeisance to the radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.

madanarvuda-vandita-chandra-padam
pranamami sada prabhupada-padam [3]

I offer my obeisance to his very soft, golden tall figure, the figure whose beauty excels even the obsessive beauty of golden lotus stems. The beauty of the holy lotus feet of my Sri Gurupadpadma is enhanced by his moon-like toenails, which are worshipped by millions of Cupids. I eternally offer obeisance to this radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.

Like the moon that makes the stars rejoice, he is surrounded by his disciples, ever delighting their hearts. His roar drives away all those who hate and envy devotees, and the simple, innocent devotees attain supreme benefit by taking shelter at his lotus feet. I offer obeisance to him. I eternally offer obeisance to the radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.

An eternal shelter of the souls surrendered to Gaura, he is the guru of the entire world. He is devoted to the service of his own guru, Srila Gaura Kishor Das Babaji Maharaj, and adores Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur with all his heart. I offer obeisance to him.

kaviraja-narottama-sakhya-padam
pranamami sada prabhupada-padam [7]

His very existence lies in raising the banner of Sri Rupa, Sanatan and Raghunath. On this earth, many souls always glorify him saying that his figure is non-different from Sri Jiva, who is extolled for his great erudition. He is renowned as an intimate associate of Srila Krishna Das Kaviraj and Thakur Narottam. I offer obeisance to him.

Bestowing mercy upon jiva souls, he is manifest as a worshippable deity of Hari-kirtan personified. He is an associate of Sri Gaura who removes the burden of offences from Mother Earth. I offer obeisance to this very gentle fountainhead of greater parental affection towards jiva souls than even that of a father. I eternally offer obeisance to the radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.

Fulfilling the cherished aspirations of his surrendered servants, he resembles a wish-fulfilling tree. His tolerance and magnanimity put trees to shame. I offer obeisance to his divine holy lotus feet, which are worshipped even by the best of benefactors. I eternally offer obeisance to the radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.

parahamsa-varam paramartha-patim
patitodharane krta-vesa-yatim
yati-raja-ganaih parisevya-padam
pranamami sada prabhupada-padam [10]

He is the ornament of the entire class of paramahamsas, the master of the fifth and greatest goal of life, Sri Krishna-prema. He accepts the garb of a renunciant (a sannyasi beggar) to rescue fallen souls. I offer obeisance to his holy lotus feet, which are served by the highest tridandi-sannyasis. I eternally offer obeisance to the radiance emanating from the toenails of my master.
