Translation
The Kinnaras said: O supreme controller, we are ever-existing servants of Your Lordship, but instead of rendering service to You, we were engaged by this demon in his service, constantly and without remuneration. This sinful man has now been killed by You. Therefore, O Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva, our master, we offer our respectful obeisances unto You. Please continue to be our patron.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
The Kinnaras said: O supreme controller! We are your servants, but we were engaged constantly by this demon in rendering free service to him. O master! This cause of suffering has now been killed by you. O Lord Narasiṁha! Please act for our prosperity!
Viṣtim means service without pay. We are engaged constantly (anu) without pay. Vṛjinaḥ means “one who gives suffering.”
