Verse 1
Look at Lord Gaura. He glistens like a moon surrounded by the stars of the devotees a moon glorious like jasmine flowers and gold a moon that fills all the worlds with light.
Verse 2
The moon of Lord Gaura is the friend of the lotus flowers that are the fallen sinners who dare not hope for a good future. The moon of Lord Gaura brings great tidal waves to the ocean of the rasika devotees who taste the nectar of transcendental mellows. The moon of Lord Gaura removes the darkness that fills the cave of the heart. The moon of Lord Gaura shines day and night.
Verse 3
Lord Gaura's form is naturally handsome and charming. Filled with bliss after bliss He cannot remain peaceful. Overcome with ecstasy He staggers as He walks gloriously staggers like an intoxicated elephant.
Verse 4
Overcome with ecstasy He calls out "Mukunda! Mādhava! Govinda!" He weeps. He laughs. He falls to the ground. The hairs of His body stand erect. He is glorious.
Verse 5
His glories are the best of glories. Who will say where His glories end? Both friends and outsiders He hugs holding them in His arms. Showering a monsoon of the nectar of ecstatic spiritual love He makes this thirsty world wild with bliss.
Verse 6
Exalted saints and fallen sinners alike float in that flood of nectar. Only Govinda dāsa does not float there. Only he is cheated of that nectar. When will Govinda dāsa be soaked by that nectar? Who knows? Alas the wooden umbrella of Govinda dāsa's hard heart keeps him always dry.
