English Meaning

Lord who resides on the Venkatadri hills,
lotus-naveled one, show yourself to Lakshmi (Goddess of wealth) ||

Son of Vasudeva and Devaki, the one with a moon-like face,
Govinda, the protector of cows,
Mukunda, the one with a divine navel, our eternal savior ||

boon-giver to the noble souls,
The one who, with immense love, protects his devotees,
The great destroyer of the mighty demons,
boundless, supreme, and glorious Lord ||

Lord who once lifted the great serpent-mountain,
The one who carries Garuda (the celestial eagle) on his shoulders and comes with great speed,
The one who grants refuge to his devotees,
enchanting Lord Vittala Timmapa, our beloved deity ||

Reflective Commentary :

This sweet bhajan by Mohanadasaru is a loving prayer to Lord Venkatesha, who lives on the Venkatadri hills. The devotee asks Him to reveal Himself to Goddess Lakshmi, and remembers Him as Krishna—the son of Devaki and Vasudeva—who brought joy to everyone around Him.

The Lord is praised as Govinda, the protector of cows, and Mukunda, the giver of peace and liberation. He is full of love for His devotees, blesses them happily, and destroys great demons to protect the world. The song ends by recalling how He once lifted a mountain to save His people, and lovingly calls Him Nammappa—our very own Lord who always takes care of us.

The destroyer of sins, the leader of sages. || 3 ||

English Meaning

Protect us, protect us, O son of Parvati
Nurture us, O kind-hearted remover of obstacles ||

The one residing in the city of honey (a divine abode), the embodiment of victory and grace
I bow to you, Lambodara (the one with a large belly), Gajaanana (the one with an elephant face) || 1 ||

O Ganapa (Ganapati), beloved of Omkara (the primordial sound), the pure and untainted one
Adorned with a serpent, gentle and ever-pleasing |

O Siddhi Vinayaka (the giver of success), the one who brings complete prosperity
The wielder of the noose and goad, with a noble elephant face || 2 ||

Reflections:

This beautiful bhajan is a gentle and heartfelt appeal to Lord Ganesha—Parvati’s beloved son, the remover of obstacles and the embodiment of compassion. The devotee lovingly pleads, "Protect me, nurture me," placing complete trust in the divine. Ganesha is not just the destroyer of difficulties, but also the one who brings joy and victory, whose presence fills the mind with peace and grace.

The second verse praises the serene and resplendent form of Ganesha—one who delights in the sacred sound Om, adorned with serpents, yet radiating calm and benevolence. He is Siddhi Vinayaka, the giver of success and all prosperity. The imagery of his elephant face holding the noose (pasha) and goad (ankusha) symbolizes both guidance and protection. Through this bhajan, the soul bows in deep reverence, surrendering to the powerful yet tender presence of the divine—asking not just for blessings, but for inner strength, clarity, and unshakable trust on the spiritual path.

Vishwacha Vishrama Re/ विश्वाचा विश्राम रे

🎼 Lyrics in Marathi:

विश्वाचा विश्राम रे, स्वामी माझा राम रे
आनंदाचे धाम त्याचे, गाऊ वाचे नाम रे ||1||

चिद्रत्‍ना घन खाण रे, एकाएकी जाण रे
प्राणांचाही प्राण माझा, गड्या तुझी आण रे ||2||

देवाचा जो देव रे, तो हा स्वयमेव रे
अलक्ष लक्षुनी साखी, घेउ अंगी खेम रे ||3||

शिवाचा आराम रे, भक्तपूर्ण काम रे
मुक्त योगीजन गाती, तयासी निष्काम रे ||4||

मिथ्या दे अनेक रे, सत्य राम एक रे
विष्णू कृष्ण जगन्‍नाथ, करी हा विवेक रे ||5||

🔤 English Transliteration:
Vishvacha vishram re, swami majha Ram re
Anandache dham tyache, gau vache naam re ||1||

Chidratna ghan khan re, ekaaeki jaan re

Devacha jo Dev re, to ha swayamev re

🌸 English Meaning:
He is the true rest of the universe—my Lord, my Ram.
His abode is pure bliss; let my speech sing only His name. ||1||

He is the mine of supreme consciousness, suddenly realized,
O beloved! He is the very breath of life; bring me to Him. ||2||

He is the God of all gods, self-manifested,
Though invisible, He gives witness and fills me with divine grace. ||3||

He is the peace of Shiva, fulfilling the devotee's desire.
Liberated yogis sing of Him with desireless hearts. ||4||

This world offers countless illusions, but only Ram is truth.
He is Vishnu, Krishna, Jagannath—He gives us the light of discernment. ||5||

---

🪔 Reflection:
This deeply meditative bhajan sings of Lord Ram not just as a deity, but as the ultimate stillness, joy, and inner resting place of the entire universe. The devotee acknowledges Ram as the supreme essence behind all existence—the energy behind life, the soul of the soul.

Each stanza peels away layers of illusion, pointing us toward that one truth—Ram as the divine Self, beyond all form, yet deeply present. The bhajan touches non-duality gently while staying rooted in bhakti rasa, where yogis, sages, and saints celebrate the same Lord beyond desire or attachment.

The final verse especially strikes a note of clarity: among the many temporary things in this world, only Ram is real. In a world of illusions and distractions, this becomes a call to return to the inner source—to discern, to devote, and to find peace.
