Sri Gaura Arati

By Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur

(kiba) jaya jaya gorachander aratika sobha
jahnavi-tata-vane jaga-mana lobha [1]

(jaga-janer mana lobha)
(gauranger arati sobha jaga-janer mana lobha)
(nitai gaura haribol)

All glory to the beautiful arati to Sri Gorachand in a grove on the banks of the Ganges, which attracts the hearts of all souls throughout the world!

(kiba) daksine nitaichanda bame gadadhara
nikate advaita srinivasa chhatra-dhara [2]

On Gorachand's right is Nitaichand, and on His left is Gadadhar. Advaita is nearby, and Srivas holds an umbrella.

(kiba) basiyachhe gorachanda ratna-simhasane
(ratna-simhasana alo karere
basiyachhen gorachand ratna-simhasane)
arati karena brahma adi-deva gane [3]

(gauranger arati kare)
(brahma adi-deva gane gauranger arati kare)
(gaurangera bhakta sane gauranger arati kare)
(nitai gaura haribol)

Gorachand has sat on a jewelled throne. Brahma and the other demigods worship Him (in the company of His devotees).

(kiba) narahari-adi kari chamara dhulaya
sanjaya-mukunda-vasu-ghosa-adi gaya [4]

(gaura guna gana kare)
(sanjaya mukunda vasu-ghosa gaura guna gana kare)
(nitai gaura haribol)

Narahari and others fan the Lord with chamaras. Sanjay, Mukunda, Vasudev Ghos, and others sing.

(kiba) sankha baje ghanta baje baje karatala
madhura mrdanga baje parama rasala [5]

(madhur madhur madhur baje)
(gauranger arati kale madhur madhur madhur baje)
(sankha baje ghantabaje madhur madhur madhur baje)
(madhura mrdanga baje madhur madhur madhur baje)
(nitai gaura haribol)

Conches, bells, kartals, and mrdangas resound sweetly. The kirtan is most relishable.

(kiba) bahu-koti chandra jini vadana ujjvala
gala-dese vana-malakare jhalamala [6]

(jhalmal jhalmal jhalmal kare)
(gaura gale vana phuler mala jhalmal jhalmal jhalmal kare)
(nitai gaura haribol)

The radiance of the Lord's face surpasses that of millions of moons. The garland of forest flowers around His neck shines.

(kiba) siva-suka-narada preme gada-gada
bhakati-vinoda dekhe gorara sampada [7]

Siva, Sukadev, and Narad stammer in the ecstasy of love. In this way Bhakti Vinod beholds Gorachand's glory.

(ei bar amay daya kara)
(thakura sri bhakti-vinoda ei bar amay daya kara)
(thakura sri sarasvati ei bar amay daya kara)
(patit-pavan sri gurudev ei bar amay daya kara)
(saparsada gaurahari ei bar amay daya kara)
(nitai gaura haribol)

This time please give me your grace. O Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur, O Srila Saraswati Thakur, O Gurudev, saviour of the fallen, O Gaurahari, along with your associates, this time please give me your grace.
