SRI GAUDIYA GITANJALI : SPECIAL POETRY
radha-krsna prana mora yugala kisora
jivane marane gati ara nahi mora [1]
The youthful Divine Couple, Radha-Krishna, are my life and soul. In life or
in death, I have no other shelter, no other way.
kalindira kule keli-kadambera vana
ratana vedira upara vasaba dujana [2]
syama-gauri ange diba (chuya) chandanera gandha
chamara dhulaba kabe heriba mukha-chandra [3]
When will I seat Them both upon a throne bedecked with jewels in the forest
of keli-kadamba trees on the bank of the Kalindi, smear sandalwood on
Radha’s body and fan Her with a yak-tail whisk? When will I see Her moon-like
face?
ganthiya malatira mala diba donhara gale
adhare tuliya diba karpura tambule [4]
I will string malati flowers into a garland and place it on Their
necks and then put camphor wrapped in a betel leaf into Their mouths.
lalita visakha adi yata sakhi-vrnda
ajnaya kariba seva charanaravinda [5]
I will serve Their lotus feet, doing whatever Lalita, Visakha and other girls
tell me to do.
sri-krsna-chaitanya prabhura dasera anudasa
seva abhilasa kare narottama-dasa [6]
Narottam Das is hankering to serve the servants of the servants of Sri
Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
