Lyrics

Nanda Nandana Candra Candana

Govinda Dasa Kaviraja

Verse 1

nanda-nandana candra-candana gandha nindiha anga jalada sundara kambu-kandhara nindi sindhura anga

The fragrance of Krsna's limbs eclipses the fragrance of sandal paste and camphor. Lord Krsna is more glorious than the monsoon clouds. His neck is more graceful than the conchshell. He is more handsome than an ocean of handsomeness.

Verse 2

prema akula gopa gokula kulaja kamini kanta kusuma ranjana manju-banjula kunja-mandire santa

Gokula's cowherd people all love Him. The saintly beautiful gopis dearly love Him. He is decorated with many flowers. He is graceful and charming. He stays in a forest cottage.

Verse 3

ganda-mandala balita kundala uda cuda sikhanda keli-tandaba tala-pandita bahu-dandita-danda

Earrings adorn the circles of His cheeks. He wears a peacock-feather crown. He playfully dances. He is expert in a host of graceful rhythms. His arms are great maces.

Verse 4

kanja-locana kalusa-mocana srabana-rocana bhasa amala komala carana-kisalaya nilaya gobinda-dasa

His eyes are lotus flowers. He frees the devotees from a host of sins. His words delight the ear. Govinda dasa takes shelter of His soft and splendid flower-bud feet.
