When demons like Kamsa were born in this earth (bhuloka) and were giving trouble to good (sacred) people, Sri Krishna has manifested to destroy them. Sri Narayana who manifested in the form of Sri Krishna is Sarvothama (has all the good qualities). For those who are praying him (hari bhaktas, devotees) he will oblige to bless them according to their devotion and liberate them. Sri Krishna will bless knowledge, Ananda (Happiness which is above materialistic happiness) in the present form of body and he will give continuous satisfaction in all their actions. The great saints like Hamsa, Paramahamsa are remembering and praying Sri Krishna continuously (without any interruptions) and are feeling happy in doing the so. Sanaka-Sanandadi saints (since ancient time rishis) are praying Sri Hari and saluting to his auspicious feet in particular.
Sri Vadiraja is telling that the same foot he is praying (devoting) continuously (without any interuptions).

In this verse Sri Vadiraja is praying Sri Krishna to bless him to destroy the desires of all organs in the body.
Sri Krishna has the eyes which is similar to the lotus flowers. Vidura and other similar gyanis (knowledged people) believe that Sri Krishna is their protector and they are all sheltered (depend) on him. Jarasanda who is the king of Magadha with his armies which constitutes elephants, horses, cavalary, ratha's (car) and infantry armies along with the dependent kings armies attacked Mathura city many times and each time he was lost against Sri Krishna and Sri Krishna not only won against him he also destroyed Jarasanda’s egotism. Garuda one who is the king (leader) of birds is Sri Krishna vehicle. Sri Krishna is acting as a master to Arjuna, who is sitting in the ratha which constitutes white horses. (That's why his ratha (car) is being called 'Shwetha Vahana' (white chariot)).
Sri Krishna has destroyed one demon called 'Keshi' who came in the form of horse and was giving troubles to Gopala's by putting his hand inside the horse mouth and blocking the respiratory system.
Sri Krishna's head is decorated by the fragrant flowers like Jasmine, Cadamba, Lotus and other flowers.
Sri Vadiraja is praying Sri Krishana that Manmatha (Kama's master) to enter into his body and please destroy all the desire for materialism.

On the deep waters of river Yamuna there lived a serpent king cobra by name Kaliya. By the snake's presence there was air of poison and living beings like cows, Gopala's and animal birds were having difficulty in their living. In order to destroy Kaliya Sri Krishna jumped into the deep water of Yamuna and started doing dance on the heads (expanded hood of a cobra, hede) of Kaliya. By doing so he made Kaliya to vomit all the poison from him and made him to go to some other place. When Sri Krishna has put his foot on the top of Kaliya's head his nails were shining like a Sun. When reddish sun's sparkles are falling on the nails of Sri Krishna and reflecting on the river Yamuna, Yamuna River was looking full of red.
Demons who acquired boons (blessings) from the devataas like Ishwara (Rudra) were having lot of egoism and were troubling good people. Sri Krishna kidnapped all these demons and destroyed their heads with ease.
Sri Krishna was decorated by the dusts (small particles) of fragrance smell in his heart (chest) place which he got from the beautiful looking Gopika ladies. Sri Vadiraja is praying Sri Krishna that he is always wining and winning.

Five Pandava sons (brothers) and Drupadi was having strong desire in their minds to destroy Duryodhana & co.  They feeling that by killing them Dharma can be reestablished. Sri Krishna promised them that he will help in this regard and made them to feel happy about the same. Sri Krishna will protect those who wear his symbols like conch-shell, discuss (shanku, chakara are his devotees) and he will destroy all their sins also. He is accompanied by Kalindi and other six prime wives. Sri Krishna will act as a river to the ocean of happiness for sacred (good) people. He has been called Ajitha (one who cannot win against him), Jishnu (winner), Vishnu (Omini present), Giridhara, (wearing Govardhana mountain), Vamana (Indra's brother) and Courageous by the very popular name Sri Krishna.

Bhudevi, Sridevi and Rukmini are considered to be supreme beautiful devataas are Sri Krishna's wives. Though Sri Krishna is not young in any respect (to anybody) he has manifested as Balarama's younger brother and shown his lila and has become very popular. He has killed demon called Vyamasura who was giving trouble to Gopala's and Gopika's and made them to feel happy about it.
When Narakasura was troubling good people, Sri Krishna went to Pragjyothipur in the city of Narakasura and destroyed him by liberating 16,000 beautiful ladies. These beautiful ladies know Sri Krishna's good qualities and after seeing him they were all showing interest to marry him. By their beautiful eyes they started doing 'amruthapana' (happiness which is equal to drinking Amrutha) to Sri Krishna. Later Sri Krishna has accepted all of them as his wives.
The same Sri Krishna is being prayed by Brahma, Rudra and other devataas and Bhimasena is saluting to his lotus feet. Sri Vadiraja is praying that Sri Krishna has to give him complete devotion to pray to his lotus feet.

PS : The above two verses are combined and explained, this mode is called 'yugma'.
In these two verse Sri Vadiraja is explaining Sri Krishna concern towards devotees and love towards Pandavas.
Tormented Duryodhana made Bhimasena who is considered to be equal to his nature to undergo the follwing troubles:
Duryodhana made Bhimasena to eat poisonous sweets like laddu and other sweets, because of Sri Krishna’s blessings Bhima digested all those eatables.
Duryodhana made poisonous snakes to bite Bhimasena, by doing so snakes lost their teeths, but it has not affected Bhima.
When Bhimasena was fast asleep, Duryodhana tied him with strong threads and with his assistants he has thrown him to the deep waters of Ganga, even at that time Bhima was not affected. At that time Bhima went to Pathala (lower region) and drank eight pots of Amrutha which Vasuki (snake) has given and came out with more powers.
When Pandavas were living in the woods jealous Duryodhana tried to destroy them by burning inside the wax house where they were residing. By the blessing of Sri Krishna they all Pandavas escaped from this trouble.
Bhimasena crossed the river Ganga, there he killed the demon called Hidimba. Later in the city of Ekachakra when all pandavas are living as Seekers (bhikshakaru), Bhimasena killed Bhakasura.
From there they moved to the city of Panchala there they got married to Drupadi and returned to Hastinavati where they were all living on getting the half of their share of their kingdom.
Again anguished Duryodhana invited Pandavas for betting and through cunning Shakuni made pandavas to lose the game and sent them to the forest again.
Duryodhana and company were always talking very bad about Pandavas. By the blessings of Sri Krishna Pandavas completed the period of living in woods (vanavasa) and were living in disguise in the court of the king Virata who is lower in their cadre.
At all these times many bad people were making mockery of sacred Padavas again and again and were laughing.
All these things were seen by Sri Krishna and according to his will he made arrangements for the great Mahabharatha War.
Sri Krishna along with his own man Bhimasena, his eldest brother Dharamaraja and Indra's son Arjuna and many good people decided to wage war and destroy Duryodhana and his associates and Akshohini army. For this purpose he left Garuda his vehicle and king of birds, sword called Nanda, bow called Shagrya & arrows, sharpened sudharshana wheel and became the charioteer (sarathi) to Arjuna's ratha where Hanuma's flag has been hoisted, mainly to protect him. This purpose is very great.

Sri Vadiraja is praying that Sir Krishna paramathama is big by doing all these things.
