To bring down the pride of Indra, Lord Krishna advised the cowherds to discontinue the worship of him and instead worship Govardhana mountain. Enraged by this Lord Indra attacked Gokula by torrential rain. The Lord lifted the mountain and under it, the entire Gokula was protected. Humbled by the Lord, Indra prayed to him. This prayer occurs in Tenth Skanda, twenty seventh chapter and slokas 4-13.
1. Vishdha thathwam thava dhama shantham,
Thapomayam dwastha rajastha maskam,
Maaya mayoyam guna sampravaho,
Na vidhyathe they agra hana anu bandha.
Your peaceful abode is the principle of purity,
It is full of penances and devoid of Rajas and Thamas,
And the tide of characters created by your illusion,
Does not reach here and persists only through ignorance.
2. Kuthaa nu thadwethava yeesa thathkruthaa,
Lobhaadhayo ye abudha linga bhaava,
Thadaapi dandam bhagwan vibhothim,
Darmasya gupthyai khala nigrahaaya.
In spite of even an iota of greed and other qualities,
Which cause rebirth and are the sign of ignorant,
Does not exist in you, you have taken the rod of punishment,
For punishing the bad and protecting the good, Oh God.

Durathyaya kala upatha danda,
Hithaaya swecha thanubhi sameehase.
Manam vidhunvan jagadheesa maaninam.

And you hold the scepter of the impassable time,
And take the form that pleases you,
And punish those who falsely think that they are Gods.
4. Ye madh vidhaagnaa jagadheesa maanina,
Thwaam veekshya kale abhayamasu than madham,,
Hithwaa aarymargam prabha janthya pasmayaa,
Yeehaa khalaanaam api they anusasanam.
Fools like me think that we are the lords of universe,
But seeing you, we shake of our pride too quickly,
For, you without feeling of ego, face dangers peacefully,
And punish the bad ones,simply by your discipline.
5. Sa thwam mamaiswarya madha pluthasya,
Krtuthaga sasthe avidhusha prabhavam,
Kshanthum prabho adharhasi mooda chethaso,
Maivam punarboonmathireesa may asathi.
Due to the fact that I was immersed in the pride of wealth and power,
And being ignorant of your greatness I troubled and sinned against you,
And so Oh Lord pardon my not suitable foolish pride and also protect me,
From doing such wrong things,like falling into this type of deceit.
6. Thavaa avatharoo ayam adhokshajeha,
SWayambharanaa muru bhara janmnam,

Bhavaya Yushasath charananu varthinaam.

Is meant to exterminate great valorous people,
Who are themselves burden to this earth,
And also capable of making others burden to the world,

Oh God who is everything and is the seed of all beings,

Cheshtitham vihathe yagnye, maninaa theevramanyunaa.

Of destruction of Vruja by torrential rain and wind,
Since I was filled with pride and violent anger.

Iswaram guru mathmaanam thwamaham saranam gatha.
