There are many prayers to Sri Krishna.
O Lord of Srimati Radharani, I am Yours; my actions, mind and words. O lover of Sri Krishna, Srimati Radharani, I belong to You alone. You both are my only shelter. O Radha and Krishna, ocean of mercy, I am taking shelter of You. Please be pleased upon me and make me Your servant, although I am such a fallen offender.
Thou alone art mother and father to me.
Thou alone art kin and friend to me.
Thou alone art knowledge and wealth to me.
Thou art my all, my Lord of Lords.
O Lord kindly forgive my wrong actions done knowingly or unknowingly, either through my organs of action or through my organs of perception or by my mind. Glory unto Thee O Lord, Who is the ocean of kindness.
O my dear Krishna, You are the friend of the distressed and the source of creation. You are the master of the gopis and the lover of Radharani. I offer my respectful obeisance unto You.
O Srimati Radharani, the dearest of Lord Govinda, this is always my request to You; please let Lord Govinda along with Yourself consider me to be one of Your assistants.
Lord Krishna is great. Just as every rain drop that falls from the sky flows into the Ocean, in the same way every prayer offered to any deity flows to Lord Krishna. I bow to such great Lord Krishna.
Just as the ground is the only support for those whose feet have slipped, so also You alone are the only shelter, even for those who have committed offense to You.
O Your Lordships*, I am certainly the abode of many offenses, and am completely devoid of the practice of devotional service; neither do I have any resort or shelter. Therefore, I am taking You as my ultimate goal.
O Your Lordships*, myself and whatever little bit is mine in this world and in the next, all that I now offer unto Your lotus feet.
* a way of addressing Sri Sri Radha-Krishna.
I read that a way to end prayers, equivalent to Amen is Om shanti shanti shanti ("Om peace peace peace", close English transliteration).
The Mahamantra:
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna
Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama
Rama Rama Hare Hare
And of course, you can talk to Him like the friend or parent He is to us.
