Madana Mohana Mani Gauranga Badana Khani
Bhajan | Vasudeva Ghosha
Verse 1
madana mohana mani, gauranga badana khani
rupa heri ki na haila more
sonara varana tanu, ei chila kala kanu
nahile ki mana curi kore?
Verse 2
rasera parana jara, kule ki koribe tara
nadiya nagara hena jana
ki chara daruna mati, majila jubati sati
ghare ghare premera kadana
Verse 3
nayana kamala nava , aruna parabhava
dhara bahe mukha buka bahiya
aha mari mari sai, marama tomara kai
jiva na go gora na dekhiya
Verse 4
hiyaya premera sara, tanu kaila jara jara
probodha na mane more prani
suradhuni tire jaiya, bhasaiba kula krida
bhajiba se gora gunamani
Verse 5
purabe suninu jata, sei saba abhimata
eve bhela kalatanu gora
vasudeva ghosera visnuani, rasika nagara jani
nahila ki gopira mana cora
Verse 1
I consider Gauranga's face to be like Madana mohana's; and when viewing His body – I am unable to describe my captivation! Oh, this Golden youth must have been that Black youth Krsna – for how else could He have stolen my mind?
Verse 2
But what about the Nadiya damsels who have a rasika heart, will their so-called family tie be able to stop them? How will they resist Him? And what can we say about the intense agony of Nadiya's chaste young girls -for their love-lorn crying can be heard from every home.
Verse 3
Hence their soft, lotus-eyes, conquered by the Gauranga-sun, now pour tears that stream over their breasts. Oh sakhi! I'm going to pass away … so just hear my confession.
Verse 4
Without properly knowing never classify Gora as ordinary -for my mind has fathomed the sweetness of His prema — my body is burning in a fever -and my heart cannot be pacified without Him! Just let me go to the Ganga and drown all of my family obligations; then I shall full worship Gora guna mani.
Verse 5
Concerning everything that I've heard about dark-complexioned Krsna – the same applies to Gora. Thus Vasudev Ghosh says, I know that He is a Rasika nagara – for how else could He have stolen the gopis' minds?"
