Nakha Stuti by Madhvacaryar (with meaning) / mp3

http://www.prapatti.com/slokas/mp3/nakhastuti.mp3

Shri Narasimha Nakha Stuti was written by Shripada Madhvacarya as an introduction to Shri Vayu Stuti which was written by Shri Pandit Trivikramacarya, a disciple of Madhvacarya. Up to the present time Vayu Stuti is one of the main stutis of those following in the line of Shrila Madhvacarya. It is chanted daily as a parayana. It was very much to the liking of Madhvacarya who therefore wrote this short stuti as an introduction.


pantvasman puruhutavairi balavanmatanga madyadghata
kumbhoccadri vipatanadhi kapatu pratyekavajrayitah /
Shrimat kanthiravasya pratatasunakhara daritaratidura
pradhvasta dhvatashanta pravitata manasa bhavita nakivrinda //

May the wide spread and auspicious nails of the lion-faced Lord, Narasimha who is in the company of His consort Lakshmi protect us. His nails are like thunderbolts and are highly skilled in tearing asunder the lofty mountain like heads of the herds of strong and intoxicated elephants in the forms of demons, the foes of Indra.


lakshmikanta samantato vikalayan naiveshitus te saman
pashyamyuttama vastu duratarato pastam rasoyo stumah /
yadrosotkara dakshanetra kutila prantotthitogni sphurat
khadyotopamavisphylinya bhasita brahmeshushakrot karah //

O consort of Lakshmi ! Although I've an all around study of the shastras I don't find anything equal to You, my dear master. There is nothing superior to You. Brahma, shiva, Indra and their hosts are reduced to ashes by the sparks of fire resembling sparkling glowworms issuing from the curved edge of Your right eye filled with masses of wrath.

  3. ॥ नखस्तुती ॥

    ॥ श्री नृसिंहनखस्तुतिः ॥

    पान्त्वस्मान् पुरुहूत वैरि बलवन् मातङ्ग माद्यद्घटा ।
    कुंभोच्चाद्रिविपाटनाऽधिकपटु प्रत्येक वज्रायिताः ।
    श्रीमत्कण्ठीरवास्यप्रततसुनखरा दारिताराऽतिदूर ।
    प्रद्ध्वस्त ध्वांत शांत प्रवितत मनसा भाविता भूरिभागैः ॥ १॥

    लक्ष्मीकांतसमंततोऽपिकलयन् नैवेशितुः ते समम् ।
    पश्याम्युत्तमवस्तु दूरतरतो पास्तं रसो योऽष्टमः ।
    यद्रोशोत्कर दक्षनेत्रकुटिलः प्रांतोत्थिताऽग्नि स्फुरत् ।
    खद्योतोपमविस्फुलिङ्ग भसिता ब्रह्मेशशक्रोत्कराः ॥ २॥

    इति श्रीमदानंदतीर्थ भगवत्पादाचार्य विरचितं
    श्री नृसिंहनखस्तुतिः सम्पूर्णम्
    ॥ भारतीरमणमुख्यप्राणांतर्गत श्रीकृष्णार्पणमस्तु ॥
