Oh Mind! Contemplate on the feet of lord PADMANABHA!
They are skilful and untainted and win over the pride of the red lotus.
Those are meditated upon by SANAKA, SUKA, NARADA and others. The Lotus hands of the goddess LAKSHMI constantly caress them. They are ever adored by BRAHMA and SIVA. They are like the wish yielding tree to those who genuflect.
Those feet are held in the palms of GARUDA-the king of birds. They danced on the hood of KALIYA-the great serpent as his stage. The beautiful feet rest on the lap of goddess LAKSHMI- who is born of the ocean.They wandered in VRNDAVANA and destroyed evil.
Those feet are adorned with jingling, gem studded anklets. The sun and te moonlike brilliance of your feet, remove the darkness of ignorance. They keep time to the melody of the lute skillfully. Those feet are the supreme remedy to the cycle of life and death, Oh the ageless one!

(Translation by Dr. T.K Govinda Rao)
