hari hari! āra ki emana daśā haba

chāḍiyā puruṣa deha kabe vā prakṛti haba

duhu aṅge candana parāba

Verse 2

ṭāniyā bāndhiba cūḍā nava guñjāhāre beḍā

vadane tāmbūla diba āra

Verse 3

ei kari mane abhilāṣa

jaya rūpa sanātana deha more ei dhana

nivedaye narottama dāsa

Translation

Verse 1

When, relinquishing this male material body and obtaining the spiritual body of a gopi, will I anoint the limbs of the Divine Couple with sandalwood paste? O Lord Hari, Lord Hari, when will this day be mine?

Verse 2

When will I arrange the hair of the Divine Couple? When will I give Them gunja necklaces and garlands strung with various flowers? When will I dress Them in yellow garments? When, accompanied by the other gopis, will I place betel nuts in Their lotus mouths?

Verse 3

When will I gaze to my heart's content at the enchanting forms of the Divine Couple? When will I dress Srimati Radharani in blue garments, and decorate Her braided hair with strings of nine kinds of jewels on a golden thread and with garlands of jasmine flowers?

Verse 4

My desire is that some day I shall be able to directly see the sweet beauty of the transcendental forms of the Divine Couple. O Srila Rupa Gosvami and Srila Sanatana Gosvami, all glories to you both. Please bestow this treasure upon me. Narottama dasa appeals to you in this way.
