Translation: 

 

Obeisances to You, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krsna, whose intelligence is ever unrestricted. Obeisances to the sage Nara-Narayana, who always undergoes austerities in perfect peace.

 

Purport: 

 

Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti comments that the King offered these prayers to encourage Lord Krsna to remain at his home for some days. The King thought, “Since contact with the Supreme Lord can free anyone from misconceptions and doubts, Krsna’s presence in my home will fortify my intelligence so that I can withstand the onslaughts of material desires. In His expansion as Nara-Narayana Rsi, the Lord always resides in Badarikasrama for the good of the whole land of Bharata, and so He may also create good fortune for the land of Mithila by remaining here for at least a few days. Since Lord Krsna’s propensity is toward peace and simplicity, He will certainly prefer my simple home to the excessive opulence of Dvaraka.”
