॥ Achyuta Ashtakam Meaning ॥
I worship Acyuta, the infallible one, Who is Ramacandra, Keśava, Rama, Narayana, Krsna, Damodara, Vasudeva, Hari, Śrīdhara,Madhava, Who is dear to Gopika, and Who is the consort of Janakī.
I offer my obeisances to Lord Keśava, Who is infallible (Acyuta), Who is the consort of Satyabhama, Madhava, Śrīdhara, Who is longed-for by Radhika, Who is the temple of Laksmi (Indira), Who is beautiful by thought, Who is dear to Devakī, and Who is dear to all.
Salutations for Visnu, Who conquers everyone, Who holds a conch-shell and a discus, Who is dear to Rukminī, Who is the consort of Janakī, Who is dear to gopi girls, Who is offered [in sacrifices], the Supersoul Who destroyed Kaṁsa, and Who plays the flute.
O Krsna! O Govinda! O Rama! O Narayana, Who is the consort of Laksmī! O Vasudeva, Who attained the treasure of Laksmī! O Acyuta, Who is immeasurable! O Madhava, O Adhoksaja, Who is the leader of Dvaraka, and Who is the protector of Draupadī!
May Raghava — Who disturbed the atheistic practices of the demons, Who adorned Sīta, Who is Dandaka-forest purification cause, Who is accompanied by Laksmana, Who was served by monkeys, and Who is revered by Sage Agastya — O Lord, please protect me.
May Baby Gopala (Krsna) — Who was unfavorable to Dhenukasura and Aristasura, Who destroyed Keśī, Who killed Kaṁsa, Who plays the flute, and Who got angry on Pūtana — always protect me.
I sing praise of Acyuta, Who is adorned by a lightening like shining yellow robe, Whose body is resplendent like a cloud of the rainy-season, Who is adorned by a wild-flower garland at His chest, Whose twin-feet are of copper-red color, and Who has lotus-like eyes.
I sing praise of that Śyama, Whose face is adorned by falling locks of curly tresses, Who has jewels at forehead, Who has shining ear-rings on the cheeks, Who is adorned with a Keyūra (flower) garland, Who has a resplendent bracelet, and Who has a melodious anklet.
