Nrsimha Prayers (Sri Nrsimha Pranama)
Part One
I offer my obeisances to Lord Narasimha, who gives joy to Prahlada Maharaja and whose nails are like chisels on the stone-like chest of Hiranyakasipu
Here is Lord Narasimha, and there is Lord Narasimha. Wherever I go, there is Lord Narasimha. Lord Narasimha is outside and inside. I surrender to the original Lord Narasimha
Prayer to Lord Nrsimha
(by Jayadeva Goswami, Sanskrit, 12th century)
Part Two
Your hands are like lotus flowers, your nails are wonderful spears. You have torn apart the body of Hiranyakasipu like a bumblebee
O Kesava! O Hari who assumed the form of a half-man, half-lion - all glories to You, the master of the universe
