It is a prayer for offering pranams to Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
Prabhupada, the founder/acharya of the International Society for Krishna
Consciousness. The full prayer is as follows:

nama om vishnu paadaaya krishna presthaaya bhuu-tale
shriimate bhaktivedaanta svaamin iti naamine

translation (from Songs of the Vaishanva Acharyas):

I offer my respectful obeisances unto His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta
Swami Prabhupada, who is very dear to Lord Krishna, having taken shelter at
His lotus feet.
