Krishnaa : I am attempting with some trepidation. Corrections welcome.

All ye lotus-faced women! come and take "aarati" to Venkataramana(lord Vishnu) along with Lakshmi.
To one who took the form of a fish, who lifted the mandara mountain(as kurma), who uplifted the earth ( as varaha), who emerged as the man-lion from a pillar
To one who as the Vamana(dwarf) sought charity , who held the axe (as Parashurama), who as Rama defeated the ten-headed Ravana and who is Krishna.
To one who took the form of Buddha, who has mounted the best of horses, who protects devotees , who is Purandara Vitthala.

Rajani: Nice translation.

The one who rides the best of horses has to be kalkI.
