Lyrics and translation M. S. Subbulakshmi feat. Radha Viswanathan - Bhavayami Goralabalam

Bhavayami Goralabalam

Bhāvayāmi gōpālabālaṃ manaḥ
Sēvitaṃ tatpadaṃ cintayēyaṃ sadā Charanam:
Kaṭi-ghaṭita-mēkhalā
Khacita-maṇi-ghaṇṭikā paṭala-ninadēna vibhrājamānam
Kuṭila-pada-ghaṭita saṅkula-śiñjitēnatam
Caṭula-naṭanā-samujvala-vilāsam niratakara-kalitanavanītaṃ
Brahmādi- suranikara-bhāvanā-śōbhita-padam
Tiruvēṅkaṭācala-sthitamanupamaṃ harim paramapuruṣaṃ gōpālabālam

Bhavayami Goralabalam

Contemplate, my mind, upon Gopala, the Divine Child
Always reflect upon His lotus feet, which are adored by (even) Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva:
His waist, adorned with a beautiful girdle
Resounding with the tinkling of bejeweled anklets, radiant with its brilliance
His graceful steps, causing agitation amongst women
His charming dance, playfully scattering the butter He holds
His feet, worshipped by the divine beings, beginning with Brahma
Residing on the matchless Tiruvenkata Hill, I visualize the Supreme Being, Gopala, the Divine Child.
