Lakshmi Narayana Stotram (लक्ष्मी नारायण स्तोत्रं)

Let us be protected by the unified form of Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who in their eight hands holds Wheel, Knowledge, Blessing,
Pot, Mace, mirror and two lotus flowers, who has a pretty form,
Who like the streak of lightning among the clouds has a shining body
With blue colour on the left side and white colour on the right side,
Who are both anxious and worried and both wear yellow silks. 1

I sing the praise of Lakshmi Narayana who holds conch, wheel,
Mace, lotus, pot, mirror, lotus and book and who has body,
Which shines like the ray of lightning among the clouds. 2

I meditate on Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are like the lightning among the cloud,
Who are like a form reflected in a pure mind,
Who both have the shine of true wisdom,
And have the Sathwa character as more important. 3

Stotram

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who presided over the formation of Universe,
And who destroy sorrow and depressed feeling. 4

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who grant us wealth, pleasure and joy,
Who both are very anxious to protect devotees. 5

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who seeing the great need of the situation,
Yook twenty five different incarnations. 6

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who took their forms in the ocean of milk,
From the primeval divine form and,
Who look after for ever, every thing. 7

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who are killers of the sorrow due to poverty,
And by their mercy drives all sorrows far away. 8

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who scatter away the sins committed by devotees,
And drive away the royal and base characters of people. 9

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who are of the colour of blue lotus and the clouds,
And who hold mace, conch, wheel and Lotus flower. 10

My salutations to Lakshmi and Narayana,
Who are for ever young and parents of the world,
Who is the wish giving tree to the devotees of their feet,
And is the couple of yore who grant salvation. 11

If this octet praising Lakshmi Narayana is read,
After enjoying the pleasures of this world,
One would definitely get the joy of salvation. 12

Thus ends the octet on Lakshmi Narayana composed by Lord Krishna.
