SRI GAUDIYA GITANJALI : SRI GURU VANDANA
gurudev! kabe mora sei dina habe?
mana sthira kari’, nirjane basiya,
krsna-nama ga’ba yabe
samsara-phukara, kane na pasibe,
deha-roga dure rabe [1]
Gurudev! When will this day come? When will I chant Lord Krishna’s Holy Name,
steadying my mind and residing in a solitary place? When will the tumult of
this material world stop entering my ears and the body disease (any memory of
the body) go away?
‘hare krsna’ bali’, gahite gahite,
nayane bahibe lora
dehete pulaka, udita haibe,
premete karibe bhora [2]
I will keep chanting, ‘Hare Krishna!’ and tears will flow from my eyes. The
hairs on my body will stand on end, and I will become filled with divine
love.
gada-gada vani, mukhe bahiribe,
kampibe sarira mama
gharma muhurmuhuh, vivarna haibe,
stambhita pralaya-sama [3]
Some unintelligible sounds will come out of my mouth, and my body will begin
to shiver. Perspiring more and more, I will grow pale. I will become
dumbstruck and feel as if unconscious.
niskapate hena, dasa kabe ha’be,
nirantara nama ga’ba
avese rahiya, deha-yatra kari’,
tomara karuna paba [4]
When will I sincerely come to this state? When will I constantly chant the
Holy Name? Remaining always enrapt and subsisting anyhow, when will I obtain
your mercy?
