In Srivasa’s delightful courtyard Nityananda Raya dances.
Humans and demigods, men and women, everyone runs to see Him.
(2)
bhakata-maNDala gAota maGgala
bAje khola karatAla
mAjhe unamata nitAi nAcata
bhAyAra bhAve mAtoyAla
The circle of devotees sings auspicious songs. The karatalas and kholas sound.
In the midst of it all, Nitai dances madly with ecstatic spiritual love.
(3)
hema stambha jini bAhu subalani
siMha jini kaTi-deza
candra-vadana kamala-nayana
madana-mohana veza
His graceful arms surpass the beauty of golden pillars, and His slender waist defeats
the lion’s waist. His moon-like face and lotus eyes enchant even Madana.
(4)
garaje puna puna lampha ghana-ghana
malla-veza dhari nAca-i
aruNa-locane prema-varikhaNe
avanI-maNDala siJca-i
Again and again he roars. He leaps and leaps with the agility of a great athlete.
All around, the earth is sprinkled with tears from His reddish eyes.
(5)
dharaNI-maNDale premera vAdara
karala avadhUta-cAnda
nA jAne nara-nArI bhuvana daza-cAri
rUpa heri heri kAnda
Nitai, the moon of avadhutas, drowns the whole world with divine love. The men and women of the
fourteen worlds, not understanding Him, simply gaze and gaze at His wonderful handsome form, and cry.
(6)
zAntipura-nAtha garaje avirata
dekhiyA premera vikAra
dhariyA zrI-caraNa karaye rodana
paNDita zrIvAsa udAra
Seeing Nitai’s spiritual transformations, Advaita, the master of Santipur, roars incessantly.
Noble Srivas Pandit grasps Nitai’s feet and weeps.
(7)
mukunda kutUhalI kAndaye phuli-phuli
dhariyA gadAdhara kora
nayane vahe prema ThAkura abhirAma
saghane hari hari bola
Mukunda cries out in joy. Overcome, he embraces Gadadhar.
Tears of spiritual love flow from Abhiram Thakur’s eyes. He calls out, “Hari! Hari!”
(8)
nA jAne dibA-nizi prema-rase bhAsi
sakala sahacara-vRnde
zaGkara-ghoSa dAsa karata prati-Azśa
nitAi-caraNAravinde
Everyone floats in the nectar of ecstatic love. No one knows if it is day or night.
Shankar Ghosh yearns to attain Nitai’s lotus feet.
