Meaning:
Please come, Lord VENugOpaalaa (Krishna), embodiment of adorable and victorious qualities. What offenses have I committed? I cannot bear the onslaught of Cupid, the god of Love. I have nowhere else to go. You come here with a free mind and spread cheer. Don't be angry because I persist with you respectfully. You have held the mountain Govardhana and destroyed the demon Mura. Please do not forget me. I seek refuge in you.
