SRI GAUDIYA GITANJALI : SPECIAL POETRY
Sri Krishna Vandana
(he) deva bhavantam vande
man-manasa-madhukaram arpaya nija-pada-pankaja-makarande
yadyapi samadhisu vidhir api pasyati na tava nakha gramarichim
idam ichchhami nisamya tavachyuta tadapi krpadbhutavichim [1]
O Lord, I offer obeisances unto You. Please place the bee of my heart in the
honey of Your lotus feet. O Achyuta! Although even Brahma, in his
samadhi, cannot see the lustre of the tips of Your toenails, I have
heard of the waves of Your wonderful mercy and I desire to see it.
bhaktir udanchati yadyapi madhava na tvayi mama tila-matri
paramesvarata tad api tavadhika-durghata-ghatana-vidhatri [2]
O Madhav! Although I do not have even a sesame-seed size of devotion to You,
Your supreme power is the creator of even more improbable miracles.
ayam avilola-tayadya sanatana kalitadbhuta-rasa-bharam
nivasatu nityam ihamrta-nindini vindan-madhurima-saram [3]
O eternal Lord, may the bee of my heart reside eternally at Your lotus feet,
where there is an abundance of the most wonderful honey, which surpasses the
nectar of immortality, and thus attain the ultimate sweetness.
