Invocation to the Vayu Stuti (Madhva / Dvaita tradition) · Sri Madhvacharya (Anandatirtha) · 13th century CE
When Sri Trivikrama Panditacharya, a disciple of Sri Madhvacharya, composed the celebrated Vayu Stuti in praise of his guru as an incarnation of Vayu, Madhvacharya himself is said to have added two verses in the Sragdhara metre — one at the beginning and one at the end — in praise of Lord Narasimha. The opening verse, the Narasimha Nakha Stuti, glorifies the claws of the Man-Lion that destroyed Hiranyakashipu, and is chanted first as a shield of protection before the Vayu Stuti.
✦ શાસ્ત્રોમાં કહ્યા પ્રમાણે
It is traditionally believed that Lord Narasimha manifested before Sri Madhvacharya, and that reciting these two verses invokes the Lord's claws as a living shield; devotees in the Madhva tradition chant the Nakha Stuti to ward off fear, illness and unseen dangers, holding that no darkness can stand before the radiance of those nails.

અર્થ:May the long, beautiful claws of the glorious lion-faced Lord protect us — each one of them sharper and more capable than a thunderbolt at ripping open the lofty, mountain-like temple-bones on the heads of the rutting elephant-herd that was the mighty enemy of Indra (Hiranyakashipu). Those claws, which tore the foe asunder and drove away all darkness, are meditated upon with serene and expansive minds by the most fortunate of souls.

અર્થ:O beloved of Lakshmi! Though I search in every direction, I behold no excellent thing anywhere equal to you, the Lord — you who are the supreme 'eighth flavour', set far beyond all the rest. By the fire that blazed and leapt from the corner of your wrath-filled eye, the very hosts of Brahma, Shiva and Indra were reduced to mere ashes, like sparks no brighter than fireflies.
