You always liberally grant the nectarean ecstasy of devotion to the Supreme
Lord. The beauty of your radiant form, which is worshipped by all sincere
seekers, defeats the beauty of hundreds of moons. I am offering hundreds and
hundreds of obeisances to You, the greatest of worshippable Lords.

Your holy feet are great benefactors bestowing good fortune and supreme
benefit. They are an unshakable, unassailable fortress; they demolish the
condemnable impure practices with the inconceivable conception of oneness and
difference.

You are the crest-jewel that enlivens great transcendentalists who seek to
submerge their minds and are endowed with the highest devotion. Resembling
the God of Sun, you exude the beauty of the Supreme Lord. You are a powerful,
great holder of the nectar of Lord Krishna’s mercy.

You always drink the highest sweet nectar of the Holy Name. Your quality is
such that you always sing the glories of the Supreme Lord’s servants.
Radiating beautiful qualities, your holy lotus feet are worshipped by
bumblebees.

His holy form is of a radiant golden colour, he is very beautiful and gentle;
he is a holy guru who excels the most learned souls and is replete
with all perfections; he is adorned by the garments the colour of the rising
sun and is engaged in the joyful pastimes of bestowing devotion. Dear mind,
please worship this Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj.
