নমামীশ্বরং সচ্চিদানন্দরূপং,লসত্কুণ্ডলং গোকুলে ভ্রাজমানম্।
যশোদাভিযোলূখলাধাবমানং,পরামৃষ্টমত্যং ততো দ্রুত্য গোপ্যা।।১।।
I bow down to the Supreme Lord, whose form is the embodiment of eternity, knowledge, and bliss. His shark-shaped earrings swing to and fro. He is shining beautifully in Gokula. Out of fear of mother Yashoda, He is running swiftly away from the wooden grinding mortar, but He is caught from behind by her who ran faster than Him. (1)
রুদন্তং মুহুর্নেত্রযুগ্মং মৃজন্তং,করাম্ভোজ-যুগ্মেন সাতংকনেত্রম্।
মুহুঃশ্বাসকম্প – ত্রিরেখাপ্রকণ্ঠ –স্থিত গ্রৈব-দামোদরং ভক্তিবদ্ধম্।।২।।
[Seeing the whipping stick in His mother's hand,] He is crying and rubbing His eyes again and again with His two lotus hands. His eyes are filled with fear, and the necklace of pearls around His neck, which is marked with three lines like a conch shell, is shaking because of His quick breathing due to crying. To this Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, whose belly is bound not with ropes but with His mother's pure love, I offer my humble obeisances. (2)
ইতীদৃক্ স্বলীলাভিরানন্দ কুণ্ডে,স্বঘোষং নিমজ্জন্তমাখ্যাপযন্তম্।
তদীযেশিতজ্ঞেষু ভক্তৈর্জিতত্বং,পুনঃ প্রেমতস্তং শতাবৃত্তি বন্দে।।৩।।
By such childhood pastimes as this, He is drowning the inhabitants of Gokula in pools of ecstasy, and is revealing to those devotees who are absorbed in knowledge of His supreme majesty and opulence that He is only conquered by devotees whose pure love is imbued with intimacy and is free from all conceptions of awe and reverence. With great love I again offer my obeisances to Lord Damodara hundreds and hundreds of times. (3)
বরং দেব ! মোক্ষং ন মোক্ষাবধিং বা,ন চান্যং বৃণেঽহং বরেশাদপীহ।
ইদন্তে বপুর্নাথ! গোপালবালং,সদা মে মনস্যাবিরাস্তাং কিমন্যৈঃ।।৪।।
O Lord, although You are able to give all kinds of benedictions, I do not pray to You for the boon of impersonal liberation, nor the highest liberation of eternal life in Vaikuntha, nor any other boon. O Lord, I simply wish that this form of Yours as Bala Gopala in Vrindavana may ever be manifest in my heart, for what is the use to me of any other boon besides this? (4)
ইদন্তে মুখাম্ভোজমব্যক্তনীলৈ -র্বৃতং কুন্তলৈঃ স্নিগ্ধ-রক্তৈশ্চ গোপ্যা।
মুহুশ্চুম্বিতং বিম্বরক্তাধরং মে,মনস্যাবিরাস্তামলং লক্ষলাভৈঃ।।৫।।
O Lord, Your lotus face, which is encircled by locks of soft black hair tinged with red, is kissed again and again by mother Yashoda, and Your lips are reddish like the bimba fruit. May this beautiful vision of Your lotus face be ever manifest in my heart. Thousands and thousands of other benedictions are of no use to me. (5)
নমো দেব দামোদরানন্ত বিষ্ণো ! প্রসীদ প্রভো ! দুঃখজালাব্ধিমগ্নম্।
কৃপাদৃষ্টি-বৃষ্ট্যাতিদীনং বতানুগৃহাণেশ ! মামজ্ঞমেধ্যক্ষিদৃশ্যঃ।।৬।।
O Supreme Godhead, I offer my obeisances unto You. O Damodara! O Ananta! O Vishnu! O master! O my Lord, be pleased upon me. By showering Your glance of causeless mercy upon me, deliver this poor ignorant fool who is immersed in an ocean of worldly sorrows, and become visible to my eyes. (6)
কুবেরাত্মজৌ বদ্ধমুরত্যৈব যদ্বত্,ত্বযা মোচিতৌ ভক্তিভাজৌ কৃতৌ চ।
তথা প্রেমভক্তিং স্বকাং মে প্রযচ্ছ,ন মোক্ষে গ্রহো মেঽস্তি দামোদরেহ।।৭।।
O Lord Damodara, just as the two sons of Kuvera—Manigriva and Nalakuvara—were delivered from the curse of Narada and made into great devotees by You in Your form as a baby tied with rope to a wooden grinding mortar, in the same way, please give to me Your own prema-bhakti. I only yearn for this and have no desire for any kind of liberation. (7)
নমস্তেঽস্তু দাম্নে স্ফুরদ্দীপ্তিধাম্নে,ত্বদীযোদরাযাথ বিশ্বস্য ধাম্নে।
নমো রাধিকাযৈ ত্বদীয-প্রিযাযৈ,নমোঽনন্তলীলায দেবায তুভ্যম্।।৮।।
O Lord Damodara, I first of all offer my obeisances to the brilliantly effulgent rope which binds Your belly. I then offer my obeisances to Your belly, which is the abode of the entire universe. I humbly bow down to Your most beloved Srimati Radharani, and I offer all obeisances to You, the Supreme Lord, who displays unlimited pastimes. (8)
