Advaita Prakaṭī Kṛto Narahari Preṣṭhaḥ Svarūpa Priyo
May Śacī's son, whom Advaita Acārya brought to this world, who is most dear to Narahari Ṭhākura, who is dear to Svarūpa Dāmodara, who is Lord Nityānanda's friend, who is ther goal of Sanātana Gosvāmī's life, who makes His home in Rūpa Gosvāmī's heart, who is the goal of Lakṣmīpriya's every breath, who is the nectar that delights Gadādhara Paṇḍita, who was born from Jagannātha Miśra, who is surrounded by His many associates, and who is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, be merciful to us.
I offer my respectful obeisances to the two fathers of the saṅkīrtana movement, whose long arms reach to Their knees, who are splendid like gold, whose large eyes are lotus flowers, who are the maintainers of the worlds, the best of the brahmanas, and the protectors of the yuga-dharma (the religion of the age), and who bring happiness to the people of the world, and who have come to this place because They are very merciful.
O ocean of mercy, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu! Let there be an awakening of Your auspicious mercy, which easily drives away all kinds of material lamentation. By Your mercy, everything is madepure and blissful. It awakens transcendental bliss and covers all gross material pleasures. By Your auspicious mercy, quarrels and disagreements arising from different scriptures are vanquished. Your auspicious mercy causes the heart to jubilate by pouring forth transcendental mellows. Your mercy always stimulates devotional service, which is full of joy. You are always glorifying the conjugal love of God. May transcendental bliss be awakened in my heart by Your causeless mercy.*
