I do not consider
supreme anyone
other than the Lord of Kamala(Sridevi),
who is liberal-minded
(and dwells) on Venkatachala,
who is intent on granting
much more than what is desired by the devotees,
and who is described by the Vedas
as the Supreme God.

understand anyone other than Krishna,
who is surrounded by innumerable cowherdesses (gopikas),
enchanted by the sweet music of (His) Flute,
who is equal (in Beauty) to myriads of Cupids (Manmathas),
who gives joy and who is dear to each Gopika.

and whose arrows are unfailing.
