Simple Translation
441. You are my solace and Faith
and the god of those who praise you with love.
The god of the gods in the sky,
You took the form of a man-lion,
You measured all the seven worlds,
and You are the apocalypse.
You, the reason for everything,
removed the suffering of the elephant Gajendra
when he was caught by a crocodile
and You churned the milky ocean with the gods in the sky. .
Make me your devotee and protect me.
I am weak—remove my suffering.
