rādhā dāmodara-preṣṭhā rādhikā vārṣabhānavī samasta-ballavī-vṛnda- dhammillottaṁsa-mallikā
Translation

Radha, most dear to Damodara; Radhika, daughter of Vrishabhanu; the jasmine crowning the braided hair of all the cowherd women.

kṛṣṇa-priyāvalī-mukhyā gāndharvā lalitā-sakhī viśākhā-sakhya-sukhinī hari-hṛd-bhṛṅga-mañjarī
Translation

Foremost among Krishna's beloveds; Gandharva, the friend of Lalita; she who delights in friendship with Vishakha; the flower-bud for the bee that is Hari's own heart.

imāṁ vṛndāvaneśvaryā daśa-nāma-manoramām ānanda-candrikāṁ nāma yo rahasyāṁ stutiṁ paṭhet
Translation

Whoever recites this confidential hymn of ten enchanting names of the queen of Vrindavana, called Ananda-candrika, the moonlight of bliss,

sa kleśa-rahito bhūtvā bhūri-saubhāgya-bhūṣitaḥ tvaritaṁ karuṇā-pātraṁ rādhā-mādhavayor bhavet
Translation

becomes free of all distress, adorned with abundant good fortune, and swiftly becomes an object of the mercy of Radha and Madhava together.
