(1) O hill filled with peacocks madly dancing to the musi of the flute on Lord Govinda's mouth, O hill splashed by the high waves of Radha'-kunda, O Govardhana, please fulfill my desires. (2) O hill the goddesses of Vraja, astonished by your glory, described as the best servant of Lord Hari, O hill that fills all directions with the most wonderful splendor, OGovardhana, please fulfill my desires. (3) O hill that with your palatial caves and clouds that are the moon's friends pleases the Supreme Personality of Godhead, O hill the water of whose swiftly-flowing streams is the color of lapis lazuli, O Govardhana, please fulfill my desires. (4) O hill whose peaks are splendid with mineral colors washed with love and suitable to decorate the Supreme Lord who is the Himself the eternal decoration of all the worlds, O hill whose valley eternally resounds with the joyful sound of the flute, O Govardhana, please fulfill my desires. (5) O hill whose rocks are the regular sitting place of Lord Krishna, O charming friend of the surabhi cows, O Govardhana, please fulfill my desires. (6) O hill that stopped the destructive clouds, O hill that defeated Indra and made him harmless, O hill that ended Indra's hatred of your relatives, the hills and mountains, OGovardhana, please fulfill my desires. (7) O hill that became an umbrella above the handle of the Supreme Lord's arm, O hill very appropriately named, O hill Lord Krishna ordered to be worshipped in a Vedi yajna, OGovardhana, please fulfill my desires. (8) O friend of Srimati Radharani's transcendental pastimes, O hill in whose forest groves She dropped Her necklaces and bracelets, O hill decorated with the rasa-lila, OGovardhana, please fulfill my desires. (9) O king of hills, O dear friend of the black cloud Krishna, I pray that to whoever reads these eight verses glorifying you, the Lord of your heart (Sri Krishna, will, quickly granting the intense bliss of pure love, happily accept among His associates.
