God
Lord Jagannath is the Eternal Truth;
Is an Ocean of mirth.
God Neelamadhiva is the cause of human birth;
With his desire beauteous looks the Earth.
Lord Jagannath, Brother Valabhadra, sister subhadra smile on the altar.
They content the desires of all creatures.
Purusottamdhama Smiles with Deities;
God attracts devotees day and night.
Beautiful looks the sanctified shrine;
Devotees drink the nectar of love as drunkards to wine.
Offer light and fragrance in the morn;
Beauteous is the vernal dawn.
Devotees chant hymns delightfully;
Women devotees surrender on God’s feet gladly.
Criminals become devotees;
Chanting God’s name derive peace, delight.
God’s temple shrine is a Heaven on Earth;
Devotees drink the nectar of Divine love, mirth.
Waves of Bay of Bengal sings God’s glory day and night;
Lord Jagannath is the Generator, Operator, the Almighty.
