Jaya Vireshvara viveka bhaskara Jaya jaya Sri Vivekananda.

Indu nibhanana sundara lochana Vishva manava chira vandya.

Prema talatala kanti suvimala Adhigata Veda Vedanta, Tyaga titiksha tapasya ujjvala Chitta nirmala shanta.

Karma bhakti jnana trishula dharana Chedana jiva moha bandha
Brahma parayana namo Narayana Dehi dehi charanara vinda.

This hymn is a devotional praise dedicated to Swami Vivekananda, celebrating him as a radiant sun of spiritual wisdom and discrimination (viveka). He is addressed as Vireshvara, a heroic spiritual soul whose life illuminated humanity with the light of knowledge and strength. His serene and moon-like face and beautiful eyes symbolize purity, compassion, and spiritual power, and he is revered by people across the world.

The hymn honors his profound realization of the teachings of the Vedas and Vedanta. His life embodied divine love, purity, renunciation, endurance, and intense spiritual discipline. His mind is described as pure, calm, and tranquil, reflecting the highest state of spiritual realization.

It further portrays Swami Vivekananda as holding the spiritual trident of karma (selfless action), bhakti (devotion), and jnana (knowledge). Through these three paths, he cuts the bonds of ignorance and worldly attachment that bind human beings. The hymn concludes with a prayerful surrender, saluting the divine spirit manifest through him and requesting the blessing of his lotus feet, which symbolize spiritual guidance, grace, and liberation.
