DASAKOM 44

 STANZA 1

 GARGAMUNI, WELL VERSED IN ASTROLOGY,

CAME SECRETLY TO YOUR HOUSE,

ASKED BY VASUDEVA TO PERFORM YOUR NAMING CEREMONY (SIMILAR TO BAPTISM)

 STANZA 2

 NANDA, HAPPY TO GET THIS AND WISEST GREATEST OF ALL SAGES,

 SMILINGLY WELCOMED AND REQUESTED HIM TO PERFORM THE PURIFICATORY RITES FOR YOU

 STANZA 3

 GARGA TOLD HIM THAT IT SHOULD BE DONE IN SECRET

SINCE HE WAS THE YADAVA FAMILY TUTOR,

 AND THRILLED WITH JOY, NAMED YOU AND YOUR BROTHER,

 STANZA 4

 HE NAMED YOU IN SECRET

 BECAUSE HE SURELY THOUGHT

 THAT YOU HAVE THOUSANDS,

 NO INFINITE, NAMES

 STANZA 5

 THE SAGE CONSTRUCTED YOUR NAME

 OUT THE ROOT KRISH ( HARVEST) AND NAKARA

 TO DENOTE YOUR FORM AS BLISSFUL CONSCIOUSNESS

 OR ( KRISH ) PLOUGH AWAY ALL THE EVILS OF THE WORLD

 STANZA 6

 AND SIMILAR NAMES TO YOUR BROTHER TOO,

 BUT IMPLIED YOUR SUPERHUMAN POWERS

 SAYING THUS, " HE WILL DEFEAT ALL ASURAS AND MAKE

 YOUR FRIENDS PROSPEROUS AND HAPPY FOR ALL TIME "

 STANZA 7

 HE ADDED, "WHOEVER LOVES YOU WILL NOT SUFFER

 THE ILLUSORY MISERIES OF EXISTENCE THOSE

 AND WHO TRY TO HURT YOU

 WILL ALWAYS COME TO GRIEF

 STANZA 8

 AND “HE WILL NOT ONLY DEFEAT ASURAS,

 YOU WILL HEAR PRAISE OF HIS UNSULLIED FAME,

 STANZA 9

 “THROUGH HIM YOU WILL CROSS ALL HURDLES,

 YOU WILL BE SECURE FROM TROUBLES”

 ALL THIS TOO HE SAID, NOT REVEALING

 YOU ARE REALLY GOD HIMSELF

 STANZA 10

 WHEN GARGA LEFT,

THEY HAPPILY HUGGED YOU

 I PRAY, CURE MY ILLNESSES, PLEASE
