By Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur

radha-bhajane yadi mati nahi bhela
krsna-bhajana taba akarana gela [1]

If one does not develop within his heart the desire for Radha-bhajan, then his Krishna-bhajan goes for nothing.

atapa-rahita suraya nahi jani
radha-virahita madhava nahi mani [2]

Without sunlight the sun cannot be seen, similarly I do not pay any mind to Krishna without Radha.

kevala madhava pujaye so ajnani
radha anadara kara-i abhimani [3]

One who worships Krishna alone is ignorant. Who does not adore Sri Radha is an egotist.

kabahi nahi karabi tankara sanga
chitte ichchhasi yadi braja-rasa-ranga [4]

Never keep company with those who envy Radha if within your heart you at all wish for the loving pastimes of Vraja.

radhika-dasi yadi haya abhimana
sighra-i mila-i taba gokula kana [5]

Those who consider themselves maidservants of Sri Radha will quickly meet Gokula-Krishna (Kan).

brahma, siva, narada, sruti, narayani
radhika-pada-raja pujaye mani' [6]

Brahma, Siva, Narada, the srutis, and Narayani (Laksmi) worship with regard the holy feet of Sri Radha.

uma, rama, satya, sachi, chandra, rukmini
radha-avatar sabe,—amnaya-bani [7]

Uma, Rama, Satya, Sachi, Chandravali, and Rukmini are all Radha-"avataras"—this is the self-evident verdict of the Vedas.

hena radha-paricharya yankara dhana
bhakativinoda tara magaye charana [8]

Sri Bhakti Vinod, whose only wealth is the service of Sri Radha, humbly prays to be a serving maid at Her lotus feet.
