The citizens said: O Lord, You are worshiped by all demigods like Brahmā, the four Sanas and even the King of heaven. You are the ultimate rest for those who are really aspiring to achieve the highest benefit of life. You are the supreme transcendental Lord, and inevitable time cannot exert its influence upon You.

The Supreme Lord is Śrī Kṛṣṇa, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, Brahma-saṁhitā and other authorized Vedic literatures. No one is equal to or greater than Him, and that is the verdict of all scriptures. The influence of time and space is exerted upon the dependent living entities, who are all parts and parcels of the Supreme Lord. The living entities are predominated brahma, whereas the Supreme Lord is the predominating Absolute. As soon as we forget this clear fact, we are at once in illusion, and thus we are put into threefold miseries, as one is put into dense darkness. The clear consciousness of the cognizant living being is God consciousness, in which one bows down unto Him in all circumstances.

Translation
O master! We continually offer respects to your lotus feet, the supreme shelter for those desiring the highest benefit, which are worshipped by Brahmā, the Kumāras, Indra, which cannot be influenced by time, though time controls even Brahmā.
Commentary

Vairiṣcyāh means the Kumāras. Param parāyaṇam means the supreme shelter. In the shelter of these lotus feet, the master of Brahmā and others (paraḥ prabhuḥ), time, does not have power.
