bahu-janma-bhāgya-baśe cinmoya madhura rase

rūpānuga-bhajane mātāya
Verse 2

tuccha kāje jībana kāṭāi
Verse 3

sukhe teṅha koruṇa śrabaṇa
Verse 4

śraddhā rati tabe hoya prīti

Verse 5
putra-sneha jananīra sahaja hṛdoye sthira
dūṣita hṛdoye śikhā cāi
kṛṣṇa-prema sei rūpa nitya-siddha aparūpa
baddha-jībe aprakaṭa bhāi
Verse 6
sei to' sahaja rati pāiyāche apagati
śikhānuśīlana jadi pāya
se rati jāgiyā uṭhe jībera bandhana chuṭe
brajānanda tāhāre nācāya
Verse 1
By the power of good fortunate attained after many births, a soul may in his heart yearn after the spiritual madhura-rasa. When this yearning becomes intense, the soul enters the holy abode of Vraja and becomes passionately attached to the devotional service practiced by the followers of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī.
Verse 2
Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī taught the best kind of devotional service. Anyone who, not understanding this kind of devotional service, tries to worship Lord Kṛṣṇa, passes his life performing only petty and unimportant activities.
Verse 3
To teach this kind of devotional service, a poor person has written this Bhajana-darpaṇa. Anyone who yearns to worship Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa in Vraja should happily hear this book.
Verse 4
If the desire for it takes birth within me, I will quickly make advancement. Then faith, attraction, and spiritual love will come, one after the other. When I am truly attracted to devotional service, I will no longer see the rules and regulations of sādhana-bhakti. Those rules are meant for beginners.
Verse 5
Love for her children naturally stays in a mother's heart, but a wicked heart may need to learn that love. In the same way, an eternally liberated soul naturally possesses very wonderful love for Lord Kṛṣṇa, but that love, O my brothers, is not visible in the conditioned souls.
Verse 6
If the soul follows the rules and regulations of devotional service, he will attain wonderful attraction to the Lord. When that attraction awakens in the heart, the soul's material bondage breaks. Then the soul dances in the bliss of Vraja.
