In plain words
The moment I beheld your sacred waters, my fear was gone—waters forever revered by the great ones. O Narmadā, who shields us from the suffering of the ocean of worldly becoming, I bow to your lotus feet.
Close to the Sanskrit
My fear departed at that very moment when your water was beheld, ever revered by the son of Mṛkaṇḍu, Śaunaka and the foe of demons. O giver of protection from the suffering of the ocean of becoming, I bow to your lotus feet, O Goddess Narmadā.
