Basudha Jahnaba Debi Sobha Bidhi Adhibasa Bhusa Bhusita Tanu
Bhajan | Traditional
Verse 1
basudhā jāhnabā debī śobhā-bidhi, adhibāsa-bhūṣa-bhūṣita tanu
jhalamala kare cāru ruci chaṭā, taḍita kuṅkuma ketakī janu
Verse 2
cāri-pāśe bipra-gaṇa dhanya mane, cāhi kanyā-pāne haraṣa-hiyā
beda-dhwani kari kare āśirbāda, dhānya dūrbā duhuṁ mastake diyā
Verse 3
paṇḍita-gharaṇī dharaṇīte pada, nā dharaya hiyā dhairaja bāndhe
bibidha maṅgala karu sakhī-kula, ulu lulu de-i kata nā sādhe
Verse 4
śaṅkha ghaṇṭā ādi bādya bāje bahu, kolāhala nāhi tulanā dite
bhaṇe narahari sura-nārī alakhita dekhe kata kautuka cite
Verse 1
Their forms decorated with ornaments for the adhivāsa, the goddesses Vasudhā and Jāhnavā shine with great splendor. They glisten with great beauty. They glisten like lightning, or kuṅkuma, or ketakī flowers.
Verse 2
From the four directions brahmanas offer blessing. With joyful hearts, they glance at the the two girls. They chant the Vedas. They speak words of blessing. With auspicious dūrvā grass they touch the two girls’ heads.
Verse 3
Although their feet peacefully rest upon the ground, the paṇḍitas’ wives find they cannot keep their hearts at all peaceful and still. The girls all offer auspicious blessings. “Ulu-lulu!”, they warble. How many desires fill their hearts?
Verse 4
Conchshells, bells, and a host of musical instruments sound. A tumult arises, a tumult without equal. Narahari dāsa says: How many demigoddesses came and, unnoticed by the others, with joyful hearts watched all of this?
