namo jagannatha sutayo

namo mrdanga namah

labanga rasa madhuri

sahasra guna samyuktang

namo mrdanga namo namah

namo baladevayo namo namah

I offer my respectful obeisances unto the son of Sri Jagannath Mishra (Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu).

I offer my obeisances unto the mrdanga, from which sweet and nectarean sound emanates. I offer my obeisances again and again unto the mrdanga which has thousands of good qualities.

I offer my obeisances unto Lord Baladeva who assumes the form of the mrdanga to serve Lord Caitanya.
