Verse 1
Please meditate on youthful Lord Gaurasundara as the hero Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa who wears a forest garland. Kṛṣṇa, who is an ocean of mercy and who dearly loves the devotees, has now become Lord Gaurasundara, the moon of Nadīyā.
Verse 2
His face is a moon. His lips are flowers. Flooding waves of ecstatic spiritual love flow from His eyes as tears. His face is effulgent like millions of moons. His curly hair is decorated with flowers. Tilaka decorates His nose and forehead. His teeth are pearls. His smile is nectar. He is splendid like rainclouds and lightning.
Verse 3
Shark-shaped earrings glisten at His cheeks. His neck shines with the Kaustubha jewel. He wears reddish garments. His words are kind. He is filled with grace and glory. His limbs are anointed with sandal-paste. He shames millions of Kāmadevas. He wears candana bracelets, jewel anklets, and a glorious sacred-thread.
Verse 4
The devotees sing His gloires. The goddess of fortune serves His feet. Please slowly, slowly approach Him. Surrender everything to Him. Poor Kṛṣṇa dāsa says: My yearn to attain the shelter of Lord Gaura's feet. I pray that Lord Nitāicandra, who purifies the fallen, will give to me the gift of ecstatic spiritual love.
