Hari Bole Modera Gaura Elo

Bhaktivinoda Thakura

Verse 1

'hari' bole' modera gaura elo

Calling out "Hari!", our Gaura has come!

Verse 2

elo re gauranga-canda preme elothelo nitai-adwaita-sange godrume pasilo

He has come, moon-like Gauranga, overflowing and staggering with love; together with Nitai and Advaita, he has entered Godruma.

Verse 3

sankirtana-rase mete nam bilailo namera hate ese preme jagat bhasailo

Intoxicated with the mellow of sankirtana, he distributed the holy name; arriving at the very marketplace of the name, he flooded the whole world with love.

Verse 4

godruma-basir aj duhkha dure gelo bhakta-vrnda-sange asi' hata jagailo

Today the sorrow of Godruma's residents has gone far away; coming together with his host of devotees, he has awakened the marketplace of the name.

Verse 5

nadiya bhramite gora elo namer hate gaura elo hate, sange nitai elo hate

Wandering through Nadia, Gaura has come to the marketplace of the name; Gaura has come to that marketplace, and Nitai too has come there with him.

Verse 6

nace matoyara nitai godrumera mathe jagat matay nitai premera malasate

Intoxicated Nitai dances on the field of Godruma; Nitai maddens the whole world with the wrestling-bout of divine love.

Verse 7

(tora dekhe' ja' re) adwaitadi bhakta-vrnda nace ghate ghate palaya duranta kali podiya bibhrate

Go and see for yourself! Advaita and the host of devotees dance at landing after landing along the riverbank; the formidable Kali flees, falling into utter confusion.

Verse 8

ki sukhe bhasilo jiva goracander nate dekhiya suniya pasandir buka phate

With what joy have the living beings been flooded, afloat in the dance of Gaurachandra! Seeing and hearing it, the very hearts of the faithless blasphemers burst with envy.
