2 Refrain
ṭhākura gurāṅgera guṇa śunite parāṇa kānde ageyāna yata jana dekhiyā athira mana hari-bola bali mana bandhe
Translation

Hearing of Lord Gaurāṅga’s glories my life-breath weeps. Seeing the people did not know the truth Lord Gaurāṅga His heart unsteady began to call out “Chant the holy name of Hari!”

gadādhara dekhi kānde pahuṁ thira nāhi bāndhe kare dhari swarūpa rāmānanda pahuṁ mora śrī-pada bali loṭāya dharaṇī dhuli kole kari kānde nityānanda
Translation

Seeing Gadādhara Lord Gaurāṅga began to weep. Walking with unsteady steps with His hands He grasps Svarūpa Dāmodara and Rāmānanda Rāya. Saying “Ah! The graceful footprints of My Lord!” Lord Gaurāṅga began to roll about in the dust. Then embracing Lord Nityānanda He wept.

andha badhira yata gorā guṇa unamata diga bidiga nāhi jāne bāhu tuli hari-bole patita la-iyā kole gorā preme jaga-jana bhāse uttama adhama yata tārā haila bhāgabata baṇcita balarāma dāsa
Translation

Everyone including even the blind and deaf became wild because of Lord Gaura’s glories. In all the directions no one knew anything but Him. Raising His arms He chanted “Haribol!¢ He hugged the fallen people. Lord Gaura plunged the people of the world in the nectar of ecstatic spiritual love. From the highest to the lowest He transformed every person into a great devotee of the Lord. Only Balarāma dāsa He did not transform. Only Balarāma dāsa was cheated.
