Hope this helps, Krishnaa.
Meaning summary :
GovindA ninna namavE chanda.......
....Govinda ! your name itself is as beautiful as the moon.
Srinivasa Govinda is ever-present in all things -- from the tiniest -- atoms (aNu), dust particles (reNu), blade of grass (trNa) to dry branches (kAshtha ? ) to everything expansive in this universe (paripUrna) is representative of you.
Oh Lord, the one responsible for the creation, protection and destruction of the universe and its beings! What a joy it is to understand the truth about yourself being the root cause for the functioning of your universe and to sing about your limitless auspicious gunaas. Purandara Dasa says being immersed in the nama sankeerthanam of the supreme Lord is drinking the nectar of joy.
Purandara Dasar describes the pervasive and seamless presence of the Lord Govinda. Purandhara Dasar says the greatest joy that a Jeeva can experience in this lifetime is the realization of Hari's presence in everything around us. The understanding of this principle of all-pervasive omnipresence of the Lord is a step in the direction towards salvation.
From Devi......with some additions from me.
