About Prayers By Lord Brahma, Siva and Narada
Not a single composed poem but a garland of short invocations long recited before mangala-arati in Gaudiya temples, gathering verses traditionally linked within the sampradaya to Brahma, Siva and Narada Muni alongside verses drawn from Bhagavata literature, such as "krsnaya vasudevaya," glorifying Krishna as the son of Vasudeva and Nanda. Its closing verse names the reciters outright, four-faced Brahma chanting "Krsna Krsna Hare Hare" and five-faced Siva chanting "Rama Rama Hare Hare," which is likely the internal evidence behind this song's title, even though no single author_id can be confidently assigned to the whole compilation.
