SRI GAUDIYA GITANJALI : SRI NITYANANDA VANDANA

are bhai! nitai amara dayara avadhi!
jivere karuna kari’, dese dese phiri’ phiri’,
prema-dhana yache niravadhi [1]

Brother! My Nitai is the acme of mercy personified! Bestowing mercy on souls, He roams from place to place constantly begging everyone to accept divine love for the Lord.

advaitera sange ranga, dharane na yaya anga,
gora preme gada tanu-khani
dhuliya dhuliya chale, bahu tuli’ hari bale,
du-nayane bahe nitaiyera pani [2]

Rejoicing in the company of Advaita, He is unable to maintain His composure – overcome with divine love for Gora, He begins to roll on the ground. He staggers as He walks, chanting, ‘Hari bol!’ with His arms upraised, tears streaming from His eyes.

kapale tilaka sobhe, kutila-kuntala-lole,
gunjara antuni chuda taya
kesori jiniya kati, kati-tate nila-dhati,
bajana nupura ranga paya [3]

His forehead is embellished with a tilak mark, His curling locks sway to and fro, and a bun is tied on top of His head with a string of gunja seeds. His waist, resembling that of a lion, is adorned with a blue dhoti, and there are ankle-bells tinkling joyfully on His feet.

ke kahu nitaira guna, jive dekhi sakaruna,
hari-name jagat tarila
madana madete andha, visaye rahala dhandha,
hena nitai bhajite na paila [4]

Who shall I tell about Nitai’s glory? Seeing jiva souls and feeling deep compassion for them, Nitai delivered this world by distributing the Holy Name to everyone. Only those blinded by Cupid’s intoxicating charm still had some doubt about it and did not worship this Nitai.

bhuvana-mohana vesa! majaila saba desa!
rasavese atta atta hasa!
prabhu mora nityananda, kevala ananda-kanda,
guna gaya vrndavana dasa [5]

Dressed in a way that attracts and charms the entire universe, He captures everyone with His beauty wherever He goes! Overcome with ecstatic devotion, He roars with laughter! My Lord Nityananda is the root of pure happiness. Vrindavan Das is singing thus about His glories.
