परम आनंद स्वरूप गोविंद की पूजा करें, जो स्नान में व्यस्त महिलाओं के कपड़े लेकर पेड़ पर चढ़ गए और जिन्होंने नग्न महिलाओं को कपड़े देने के लिए उन्हें अपने करीब लाया और जो अपने कपड़े वापस पाने की इच्छा रखते थे। जो द्वंद्व, शोक और भ्रम से मुक्त है, जो बुद्धिमान है, जो बुद्धि में निवास करता है और जो शुद्ध-अस्तित्व है।

Worship Govinda who is supreme bliss, who is beautiful, who is the ultimate cause, who is the source of everything, who is without beginning whose colour is like that of the dark cloud, which often danced excessively on the hood of the serpent Kálindè inhabiting the river Kálindè (Yamuna), who manifests as time, who transcends the measures of time, who knows everything, who is te destroyer of the evil of kali, and who is the controller of the motion of the three dimensions of time.

Worship Govinda who is supreme bliss who is in the land of Brindávan which is worshipped and saluted by many groups of Gods, whose nectar-bliss of spotless smile resembles kunda flower, who is infinite bliss, whose feet are praised and worshipped by the minds of all great sages adored by all, and who is the ocean of praiseworthy qualities.

He who recites this Govindáashtakam by fixing his mind on Govinda and uttering the names of Govinda, Acyuta, Mádhava, Vishnu, Gokulanáyaka and Krushna, and gets all his sins washed off by the nectar of meditation on the lotus-feet of Govinda, attains the indwelling Govinda, the nectar of the supreme bliss.
