Attributed to Adi Shankaracharya (Stotra literature) · Adi Shankaracharya · c. 8th century CE
Narasimha, the half-man half-lion avatara of Vishnu, appeared to slay the demon Hiranyakashipu and protect his devotee Prahlada. Adi Shankaracharya, who composed hymns to many forms of the divine, addressed this 'Pancharatnam' not in praise of the Lord's deeds but to the seeker's own restless mind — likening it to a bee that flits among illusory pleasures. In five gem-like verses he dismantles the charm of the world and points the mind to the one true refuge: the lotus-feet of Lakshmi-Narasimha.
✦ શાસ્ત્રોમાં કહ્યા પ્રમાણે
Devotees of Narasimha hold that the fierce-yet-loving Lord, who burst from a pillar to save Prahlada, swiftly shields those who take refuge in him; reciting these five gems is said to dissolve fear and delusion and to fix the wavering mind firmly upon the Lord.

અર્થ:If you wish to win the affection of your true Lord and Master, worship Narahari (Narasimha) constantly. One skilled only in decorating a reflection (in a mirror) is really adorning the original. O bee of the mind, why do you wander uselessly in the tasteless desert of worldly existence? Worship, worship the nectar of the sinless lotus-feet of Lakshmi-Narasimha!

અર્થ:Just as the glitter of silver appears in a mere shell — can it ever serve as a real bracelet or ornament? — so this sorrow-filled worldly life of yours can never truly bestow lasting bliss. O bee of the mind, why wander in vain in the tasteless desert of samsara? Worship, worship the nectar of the sinless lotus-feet of Lakshmi-Narasimha!

અર્થ:Deceived by mere similarity of form, you mistook the (scentless) silk-cotton flower for a fragrant land-lotus! How can there be the perfume and sweetness here that belong to a fully-blossomed, fragrant lotus? O bee of the mind, why wander in vain in the tasteless desert of samsara? Worship, worship the nectar of the sinless lotus-feet of Lakshmi-Narasimha!

અર્થ:Why, O deluded one, do you enjoy garlands, sandal-paste, women and other sense-objects, hoping for happiness? All this is as fleeting and illusory as the shimmer of moonbeams on water in the sky (a mirage). O bee of the mind, why wander in vain in the tasteless desert of samsara? Worship, worship the nectar of the sinless lotus-feet of Lakshmi-Narasimha!

અર્થ:If you desire lasting happiness, listen — I shall tell you one beneficial word: all that is seen in a dream is surely false; O wise one, remember this very truth in the waking state too. O bee of the mind, why wander in vain in the tasteless desert of samsara? Worship, worship the nectar of the sinless lotus-feet of Lakshmi-Narasimha!
