I am not afraid of Lord Indra's thunderbolt
The surpantine peircing trident of Shiva brings no fear
The punishment of Yamaraja, the master of my death
I must admit, I must declare, of this I do not care
Not afraid of fire scorching, sun, or wind, or moon
The weapons of Kuvera, no, fear I can't assume
Yet I am so afraid to offend a Vaishnava
I must admit, I must declare this is my only fear
O this is my only fear
O this is my only fear
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! My guiding star, angel from afar
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! When you are near, no darkness pay no fear
Meek like the straw lying on the floor
Strong like the tree, humble as can be
Bright like the sun which shines on everyo-o-one
You're like the moon, lotus flowers bloom
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! My guiding star, angel from afar
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! When you are near, no darkness pay no fear
Vancha-kalpatarubhyas cha kripa-sindhubhya eva cha
Patitanam pavanebhyo vaishnavebhyo namo namaha
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! My guiding star, angel from afar
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! When you are near, no darkness pay no fear
Meek like the straw lying on the floor
Strong like the tree, humble as can be
Bright like the sun which shines on everyo-o-one
You're like the moon, lotus flowers bloom
He reasons ill, and tells alive
Whoever says Vaishnavas die?
They live in sound eternally
And only came to set me free
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! My guiding star, angel from afar
Ah-ah-ah-ahh
O Vaishnava! When you are near, no darkness pay no fear
Vancha-kalpatarubhyas cha kripa-sindhubhya eva cha
Patitanam pavanebhyo vaishnavebhyo namo namaha

I offer my respectful obeisances unto all the Vaiṣṇava devotees of
The Lord. They are just like desire trees who can fulfill the desires
Of everyone,
And they are full of compassion for the fallen conditioned souls.
