Bhaba Sāgara Bara Duratara Duragraha
Gāndhāra-rāga
The ocean of repeated birth and death is horrible and wide. The people of the world were drowning in it. The fallen souls were distraught. No one could swim to the shore.
Glory glory to Lord Gaura and Lord Nitāi who descended to this world! Kindly picking up the drowning souls They placed them in the strong boat of Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy names and delivered them.
Even Brahmā Śiva Vyāsa Śukadeva Nārada and all the demigods and sages could not find that ocean's shore. To the fallen people Lord Gaura and Lord Nitāi gave the gift of ecstatic spiritual love. Who has limitless mercy like Them?
Will there ever be another avatāra like Them? They were surrounded by a host of rasika devotees. Remembering Them poor Ghanaśyāma is overcome. He feels as if a javelin is pushed into his heart.
