Birale Basiyā Ekeśwara
Staying in a secluded place, the Supreme Personality of Godhead chants the holy names of Lord Kṛṣṇa without stop.
He is the crest jewel of all avatāras. He is the cintāmaṇi jewel of all sannyāsīs who have Kṛṣṇa as their only property.
Fragrant sandal paste is nothing compared to the fragrance of His body.
Even in their dreams, the most glorious jewel ornaments cannot touch the glory of His body.
He renounced His pastimes with Goddess Lakṣmī. Now He sits under a tree.
He put aside His flute and forest-garland. Grasping a daṇḍa, now He is a sannyāsī.
Turning aside from His pastimes of jests and laughter, now He weeps, tears streaming from the blossoming flowers of His eyes.
Now His only wealth is the treasure of pure spiritual love. Now He stays with penniless devotees, devotees who have Kṛṣṇa as their only treasure.
Now He makes a great shower of tears of spiritual love. Vāsu says: My life-breath is now split into pieces.
