Sanskrit:
वयं पुरा श्रीमदनष्टदृष्टयोजिगीषयास्या इतरेतरस्पृध: ।घ्नन्त: प्रजा: स्वा अतिनिर्घृणा: प्रभोमृत्युं पुरस्त्वाविगणय्य दुर्मदा: ॥ १२ ॥त एव कृष्णाद्य गभीररंहसादुरन्तेवीर्येण विचालिता: श्रिय: ।कालेन तन्वा भवतोऽनुकम्पयाविनष्टदर्पाश्चरणौ स्मराम ते ॥ १३ ॥
ITRANS:
vayaṁ purā śrī-mada-naṣṭa-dṛṣṭayojigīṣayāsyā itaretara-spṛdhaḥghnantaḥ prajāḥ svā ati-nirghṛṇāḥ prabhomṛtyuṁ puras tvāvigaṇayya durmadāḥ
Translation:
Previously, blinded by the intoxication of riches, we wanted to conquer this earth, and thus we fought one another to achieve victory, mercilessly harassing our own subjects. We arrogantly disregarded You, O Lord, who stood before us as death. But now, O Kṛṣṇa, that powerful form of Yours called time, moving mysteriously and irresistibly, has deprived us of our opulences. Now that You have mercifully destroyed our pride, we beg simply to remember Your lotus feet.
