Krishna Shlokams

Krishnaya Vasudevaya
Devaki Nanda Nayacha
Nandagopa Kumaraya
Sri Govindaya Namo Namaha


I bow and pray to lord Krishna, son of Vasudeva and Devaki, also the son of Nandagopa, who takes away sorrows, sufferings, pain and trouble.


Vasudeva sutam devam
Kamsa-Chanoora mardanam
Devaki parama-anandam
Krishnam vande Jagatgurum


I do vandana (glorification) of Lord Krishna, the resplendent son of Vasudev, who killed the great tormentors like Kamsa and Chanoora, who is a source of greatest joy to Devaki, and who is indeed a world teacher.


Mookam karoti vaachalam
Panghum langhayate girim
Yat kripa tam-aham-vande
Paramananda Madhavam


Explanation
Lord Krisna is the avatara of Lord Visnu who personifies ananda,joy. He established dharma and also gave us the teaching of the Bhagavad Gita.

Translation
Mukam(mute) karoti(makes) vacalam(eloquent), Pangum(lame) langhayate(cross) girim(mountain), yatkrupa (whose grace) tamaham vande(I salute Him), paramananda (one whose form is ananda) madhavam (Lord Krisna).
