Translation

Verse 1

If Gauranga had not appeared, what would have become of us? How would we have held on to life? Who would have made known to the world the glory of Radha, the ultimate limit of the mellows of love?

Verse 2

Who would have had the power to render ecstatic devotional service that follows in the footsteps of the damsels of Vraja? Indeed, the clever expertise of the Vraja-gopis is a prerequisite for entering the supremely sweet forest of Vrinda Devi.

Verse 3

Sing again and again the glories of Gauranga, with a simple heart. In this ocean of material existence I see no one so merciful.

Verse 4

Why did I not melt away by chanting "Gauranga"? How could I bear to go on living? Narahari says: Of what has the Creator made my heart—stone?
