Translation

Verse 1

If you do not wish to worship Rādhā, then the worship of Kṛṣṇa will suddenly flee from you.

Verse 2

I know the sun does is never without sunlight. I know Kṛṣṇa is never without Rādhā.

Verse 3

Anyone who worships Kṛṣṇa without Rādhā is a fool. Anyone who disrespects Rādhā is arrogant.

Verse 4

Please never associate with such persons, if in your heart you wish to taste the nectar of Vraja.

Verse 5

If you think of yourself as Rādhā's maidservant, you will quickly meet Gokula's Kṛṣṇa.

Verse 6

Brahmā, Śiva, Nārada, Lakṣmī, and the Vedas personified all worship the dust of Rādhā's feet.

Verse 7

Pārvatī, Lakṣmī, Satyabhāmā, Śacī, Candrāvalī, and Rukmiṇī are all incarnations of Śrī Rādhā. This the Vedas say.

Verse 8

Bhaktivinoda begs to stay at the feet of persons whose only treasure is the worship of Śrī Rādhā.
