This is approximated in the pronunciation guide but might be difficult for those unfamiliar with these sounds. Aspiration: Sounds like 'ख' (kha), 'घ' (gha), 'छ' (cha), 'झ' (jha), 'थ' (tha), 'ध' (dha), 'फ' (pha), 'भ' (bha) are aspirated, meaning they are pronounced with a puff of air. Vowel Length: Sanskrit vowels have long and short forms which affect the duration of the sound. In this guide, long vowels are indicated with a long dash above them (for example, ā, ī, ū). Emphasis: The emphasis within words can vary, and this guide provides a general idea. Listening to a recording by a native speaker is highly recommended for accurate pronunciation.

Verse 1 He who protects the entire web of worlds, who wears a garland around his moving neck, Whose forehead is like the autumn moon, who is the death of great demons, Whose body is blue like the sky, whose divine play is beyond comprehension, Who is the consort of Lakshmi (Padma), I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 2 He who always resides in the ocean, whose smile is like a blossoming flower, Who resides in the entire universe, who shines like a hundred suns, Who wields the mace, discus, and other weapons, who wears shining yellow garments, Whose face is beautiful and smiling, I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 3 He who is the garland on the neck of Rama (Lakshmi), who is the essence of the Vedas, Who sports within the waters, who removes the burdens of the Earth, Whose form is pure consciousness and bliss, whose form is enchanting, Who assumes countless forms, I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 4 He who is free from old age and birth, who is filled with supreme bliss, Who is absorbed in samadhi (meditative union), who is ever-new, Who is the cause of the birth of the universe, who is the banner of the gods, Who is the only bridge to the three worlds, I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 5 He to whom the Vedas are sung, whose vehicle is the king of birds (Garuda), Who is the source of liberation, who is the destroyer of the pride of enemies of gods, Who is compassionate to His devotees, who is the root of the tree of the universe, Who removes the pain of those in distress, I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 6 He who is the lord of all the gods, whose hair is like a swarm of black bees, He is present in the universe as its reflection, whose heart is like space, Whose body is always divine, who is free from all desires, Whose abode is the supreme Vaikuntha, I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 7 He who is the strongest among the gods, who is the best in the three worlds, Who is the greatest of gurus, who is established in His own Self, Who is always courageous in battle, who is the hero of heroes, Who is the shore of the great ocean (of existence), I worship Him, I worship Him. Verse 8 He who has Lakshmi on His left side, who has the great serpent (Adishesha) under His feet, Who accepts the sacrifices performed with devotion, who is free from attachment and aversion, Who is praised by the great sages, who is surrounded by the gods, Who is beyond all attributes, I worship Him, I worship Him. Phalashruti (Benefits) Whoever, with a focused mind, daily recites this eight-versed hymn, Which is like a garland on the neck of Murari (Vishnu), He will surely attain the sorrowless world of Vishnu, And will never again experience the sorrows of old age, birth, and death.
