Sva Dayita Giri Kacche Gavya

Vishvanatha Cakravarti Thakura

Verse 1

sva-dayita-giri-kacche gavya-danartham uccaih kapata-kalaha-kelim kurvator navya-yunoh nija-jana-krta-darpaih phullator iksake 'smin sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

At the base of Their favorite hill, the youthful divine couple pretended to quarrel over Krsna's claim to collect a toll of yogurt and milk-products. The arrogant joking words of Radha's friends made the divine couple blossom with happiness. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, the witness of this dana-keli pastime.

Verse 2

nibhrtam ajani yasmad dana-nirvrttir asmin ata idam abhidhanam prapa yat tat sabhayam rasa-vimukha-nigudhe tatra taj-jnaika-vedye sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

Because Sri Krsna enjoyed the dana-keli pastime in a secluded place by the shore of this lake, it has become known as Dana-sarovara. The truth of this lake remains hidden to persons averse to the mellows of pure devotional service. Only the devotees have the power to understand it. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divinecouple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 3

abhinava-madhu-gandhonmatta-rolamba-sangha- dhvani-lalita-saroja-vrata-saurabhya-site nava-madhura-khagali-ksveli-sascara-kamre sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

It is beautiful with the graceful pastimes of many birds. It is cool, fragrant with many charming lotuses, and filled with the sounds of swarms of bees intoxicated by the aroma of fresh honey. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divine couple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 4

hima-kusuma-suvasa-sphara-paniya-pure rasa-parilasad-ali-salinor navya-yunoh atula-salila-khela-labdha-saubhagya-phulle sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

It is filled with cool water fragrant with many flowers. It blossoms with good fortune attained from the peerless water-pastimes of the youthful divine couple and Their sweet friends. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divine couple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 5

dara-vikasita-puspair vasitantar-dig-antah khaga-madhupa-ninadair modita-prani-jatah parita-upari yasya ksmaruha bhanti tasmin sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

It is filled with the fragrance of newly-blossomed flowers. Everyone there is pleased by the singing of the birds and bees. It is surrounded by groves of splendid trees. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divine couple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 6

nija-nija-nava-kusje gusji-rolamba-pusje pranayi-nava-sakhibhih sampravesya priyau tau nirupama-nava-rangas tanyate yatra tasmin sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

Accompanied by Their affectionate young friends, the divine couple enters the nearby forest groves filled with newly-blossoming flowers and humming bees and enjoys incomparable ever-fresh pastimes there. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divine couple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 7

sphatika-samam atuccham yasya paniyam accham khaga-nara-pasu-gobhih sampibantibhir uccaih nija-nija-guna-vrddhir labhyate drag amusmin sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

By deeply drinking its water, birds, animals, cows, and humans become at once filled with a host of transcendental virtues. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divine couple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 8

surabhi-madhura-sitam yat-payah praty-aham tah sakhi-gana-parivito vyaharan payayan gah svayam atha pibati sri-gopa-candro 'pi tasmin sarasi bhavatu vaso dana-nirvartane nah

Every day, as he converses with His friends, the moon of the gopas makes the surabhi cows drink its sweet, aromatic, and cold water, and when they have finished, He Himself drinks. I pray that I may reside at Dana-sarovara, where the divine couple enjoy the dana-keli pastime.

Verse 9

pathati su-matir etad dana-nirvartanakhyam prathita-mahima-kundasyastakam yo yatatma sa ca niyata-nivasam susthu samlabhya kale kalayati kila radha-krsnayor dana-lilam

An intelligent and self-controlled person who reads these eight verses glorifying the Dana-sarovara lake will enter the eternal spiritual world and directly see the danapastimes of Sri Sri Radha'-Krsna.
