Krsna Nama Rupa Guna Lila

krsna nama-rupa-guna-lila catustaya guru-mukhe sunilei kirtana udaya

When Krsna's name, form, nature, and pastimes divine, are heard from Sri Gurudeva, one's heart awakes in song.

kirtita haile krame smarananga paya kirtana smarana-kale krama-pathe dhaya

As pure chanting ensues, remembrance is attained; thus chanting and remembering, step-by-step ascent is gained.

jata-ruci-jana jihva mana milaiya krsna-anuraga vraja-jananusmariya

Those engaging tongue and mind, who begin to relish nectar: adore Sri Krsna, following the residents of Vraja.

nirantara vraja-vasa manasa bhajana ei upadesa-sara karaha grahana

Reside always in Vraja, within the heart's devotion… Surely, you must accept this nectar of instruction."
