To the vanquisher of mighty foes, hidden and beyond comprehension. To the master of the Ganas, the eternal Lord. To the one resplendent and golden, who was conceived by fire. We bow to you, again and again.
We bow to the one conceived and born from effulgent fire
To the vanquisher of mighty foes, hidden and beyond comprehension. To the master of the Ganas, the eternal Lord. To the one resplendent and golden, who was conceived by fire. We bow to you, again and again.
A homenage song to the master of the Ganas, who as a remover of all obstacles inspired a song to raise the awareness of the world.
