Meaning
Oh saviour lord, please have mercy, (just as you have given \'Moksha\' to Madhu-Kaitabh & also saved this earth). We are stuck in this ocean of worldliness - come to rescue the human race. Oh almighty Supreme Soul, you hold the conch shell, sudarshan chakra, and gadaa. I, Krishna (name of the composer, i.e. Master Krishnarao), pray to you with uttering your name forever.
