Meaning in English
I offer my salutations to Shri Vishnu who has a serene appearance, is lying on the great serpent Ananta with a lotus springing up from his navel and is the Lord of the Devas. I worship Shri Vishnu who is the foundation (consciousness) of the entire universe, is all-pervading and infinite like the sky, is bluish in colour like the clouds and is the embodiment of auspiciousness, is the beloved of Devi Lakshmi, has beautiful eyes that look like lotus petals and can be attained by the yogis only through meditation. I praise Shri Vishnu who removes the fear of life and death and who is the Lord of all worlds.
