Āre Re Ninduka Bhā I Tore Kire Bodha Nā I
Dhanaśī-rāga
O blapshemer brother, why do you not understand? Your eyes have become useless. Although Lord Gaurāṅga is the best of all avatāras, still you turn your eyes from Him.
The people drink liquor and kill unborn children and commit many sins. The tantric religion has covered the world. Bringing many gifts, the people worship yakṣas, rākṣasas and Goddess Mānasā.
Seeing the peoples' fallen condition, my mnaster, Śrī Caitanya became manifest in Navadvīpa.He begged everyone to please accept the holy name of Lord Hari, a name delivers the chanter. In this way the Lord stopped the decline of true religion.
With the gift of Lord Hari's holy name He delivered Jagāi, Mādhāi, and a host of sinners. By His influence the brāhmaṇas and yavanas now meet and embrace. Even just once you should see this sight.
The blasphemers have now become devotees. The lame now walk. The blind now see. Poor Kṛṣṇa dāsa says: If you have no faith in these words, you will not be delivered.
About Āre Re Ninduka Bhā I Tore Kire Bodha Nā I
A direct rebuke — "O you faultfinder, brother, have you no sense?" — one of the sharper, polemical verses this poet is known for, addressed straight at critics of the sankirtana movement rather than describing Chaitanya's form.
