Translation

Verse 1

1.The Divine Master 2.Sri Vrndavana 3.The residents of Sri Vrndavana 4.The pure Vaisnavas 5.The brahmana section 6.The worshipful mantra 7.The holy name 8.A yearning to serve the Couple Divine: I adore these eight with utmost dedication.

Verse 2

O dear mind, I implore thee at thy feet. Already we have learned the essence: nothing but Lord Krsna's service dispels the soul's illusory experience.

Verse 3

Duty, knowledge, penance, meditation -all are really exploitation: none can free us from action and reaction; Cast them all aside, O my brother, sing the glory of good faith, our mother whose grace alone bestows pure devotion.

Verse 4

Banish your pride forever, O my mind, your eight goals remember: adore them with a heart that is sincere. Aspiring for that devoted heart, at Sri Dasa Goswami's feet this Bhaktivinoda makes his prayer."
