Padakamalam karuna nilaye varivasyathi,
yo anudhinam sa shive,
Ayi kamale kamala nilaye kamala nilaya
Sa katham na bhaveth,
Thava padameva param ithi
Anusheelayatho mama kim na shive,
Jaya Jaya He Mahishasura Mardini, Ramya Kapardini Shaila Suthe || 18 ||
Kanakala sathkala sindhu jalairanu
Sinjinuthe guna ranga bhuvam,
Bhajathi sa kim na Shachi kucha kumbha
Thati pari rambha sukhanubhavam,
Thava charanam saranam kara vani
Nataamaravaaninivasi shivam,
Jaya Jaya He Mahishasura Mardini, Ramya Kapardini Shaila Suthe || 19 ||
(Oh God who had Sri Vathsa on him and wears the Kausthubha,
Please destroy fears of good people and protect me Mukunda)

(He who felled the enemy of devas using a cluster of trees,
He who has a nectar like story which is holy all over the world,
He who is interested in dancing and wears various ornaments,
He whose feet has been sung about by Narayana Theertha)
Lyrics with Meaning

Pallavi
=======
Gopāla gokula vallabhī priya, Gopa Gosuta vallabham
Charaṇāravindam Ahaṃ Bhaje, Bhajanīya Sura-muni-durlabham ||
O Gopala! Beloved of the damsels of Gokula! Lord of the cowherds, cows and calves!
I worship his lotus feet, which even the Devas and the Rishis find difficult of attainment!
The one with darkish blue complexion, Who has the splendour of countless cupids, Who delights the worlds
Who is so beautiful as to attract the minds of all, Who wears yellow silken cloth, Who is endowed with many good qualities and Who is most compassionate
(I worship his lotus feet)
He, Who has curly hair, a beautiful Tilak, charming eye-brows and a face equal to the full moon
Who destroys the fears of Tulsidas and Who sports in the forests of Vrindavan
(I worship his lotus feet)
Hey Govind hey Gopal
Hey Govind rakho sharan
Aab to jivan hari --(2)
Neer pivan heytu gayo (went there with intetion to get water)
Sindhu ke kinare (at the river bank)
Sindhu beech basat grah (in the river resides a crocodile)
Charan dhari pachhare (caught by the leg and thrown)
Hey Govind hey Gopal
Chaar prahar yudha bhayo(fought for four Prahars (1 prahar= 3hrs?))
Ley gayo mazdhare (took (me) to mid stream)
Naak Kaan Dooban lagey (Nose and ear started to submerge)
Krishna ko pukare (asking Lord Krishna to help)
Hey Govind Hey Gopal
Dwarika me Sabd gayo(message went to Dwarika)
Shor bhayo bhare ( caused comotion)
Shankh Chakra Gada Padma, Garud ley sidhare
Sur kahe shyam suno sharan hai tihare
(Surdas says Shyam we are at your mercy)
Aab ki bar paar karo, Nand ke dulare
(please help this time, O! beloved son of Nand)
Hey Govin Hey Gopal
