So these prayers were offered by Jayadeva Gosvami. One Vaisnava poet advented about seven hundred years before Lord Caitanya’s appearance. He was a great devotee, and his specific poetry, Gita-govinda, is very famous all over the world. Gita- govinda. Gita-govinda is the subject matter of Krsna playing on flute about Radharani. That is the subject matter of Gita-govinda. The same poet, Jayadeva Gosvami, has offered this prayer, pralaya-payodhi-jale-dhrtavan asivedam. He says, “My dear Lord, when there was devastation within this universe, everything was filled with water. At that time You saved the Vedas stacked in a boat, and You held the boat from being drowned in the water in the shape of a big fish.” This fish first of all was caught in the waterpot just like a small fish. Then it enlarged, and the fish was kept in a bigger water reservoir. In this way, the fish was increasing. Then the fish informed that “Devastation is coming. You just save all the Vedas on a boat, and I shall protect it.” Jayadeva Gosvami is offering prayer, “My Lord, You saved the Vedas when there was devastation in the shape of fish.”

(excerpt from Srila Prabhupada's purport to the song)
