Lyrics
namo namaḥ tulasī mahārāṇī, vṛnde mahārāṇī namo namaḥ namo re namo re meiyā namo nārāyaṇi
jāko daraśe, paraśe agha-nāśa-i mahimā beda-purāṇe bākhāni
jāko patra, mañjarī komala śrī-pati-caraṇa-kamale lapaṭāni dhanya tulasī meiyā, purāṇa tapa kiye, śrī-śālagrāma-mahā-pāṭarāṇī
dhūpa, dīpa, naivedya, ārati, phulanā kiye varakhā varakhāni chāppānna bhoga, chatriśa byañjana, binā tulasī prabhu eka nāhi māni
śiva-śuka-nārada, āur brahmādiko, ḍhūrata phirata mahā-muni jñānī candrasekhara meiyā, terā jaśa gāowe bhakati-dāna dījiye mahārāṇī
Translation
O Tulasi Maharani! O Vrnda! O mother of devotion! O Narayani, I offer my obeisances to you again and again.
By seeing you or even by touching you, all sins are destroyed. Your glories are described in the Vedas and Puranas.
Your leaves and soft manjaris are entwined at the lotus feet of Narayana, the Lord of Laksmi. O blessed mother Tulasi, you performed successful austerities and have thus become the chief consort and queen of Sri salagrama-sila.
You gladden and shower your rain of mercy upon one who offers you some incense, a ghee lamp, naivedya, and arati. The Lord does not care for even one of fifty-six varieties of cooked food or thirty-six different curries offered without tulasi leaves.
Lord Siva, Sukadeva Gosvami, Devarsi Narada, and all the jnanis and great munis, headed by Lord Brahma, are circumambulating you. O mother! O Maharani, Candrasekhara thus sings your glories. Please bestow upon him the gift of pure devotion.
