boro sukher khabor gāi surabhi-kuñjete nāmer hāṭ khule'che / khoda nitāi
अर्थ

I am singing news of the greatest happiness! At the place known as Surabhi Kuñja in Śrī Navadvīpa, the Marketplace of the Holy Name has now been opened-and Lord Nityānanda Himself is the Proprietor.

boro mojār kathā tāy śraddhā-mūlye śuddha-nāma sei hāṭete bikāy
अर्थ

Such wonderful things are going on in that blissful marketplace! Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu is selling the pure Holy Name wholesale, merely for the price of one's faith.

jata bhakta-bṛnda basi' adhikārī dekhe' nāma becche daro kasi'
अर्थ

Seeing the assembly of devotees eagerly waiting to purchase the Name, Lord Nityānanda first examines each of them to test their qualification, then He sells them the Name by bargaining for His price accordingly.

jadi nāma kinbe, bhāi āmār saṅge calo, mahājaner kāche jāi
अर्थ

O my dear friends! If you really want to buy this pure Holy Name, then just come along with me, for I am now going to meet with this Nityānanda Mahājana.

tumi kinbe kṛṣṇa-nāma dasturi loibo āmi, pūrṇa ha'be kāma
अर्थ

Thus, you will finally be able to acquire the pure Holy Name. I will also take my due commission, and in this way all three of us will fulfill our desires.

boro doyāl nityānanda śraddhā-mātra lo'ye den parama-ānanda
अर्थ

Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu is so extraordinarily merciful-accepting only one's faith in the Holy Name, He bestows the topmost divine bliss.

ek-bār dekhle cakṣe jal 'gaura' bole' nitāi den sakala sambal
अर्थ

When Nitāi sees a tear welling in someone's eye upon chanting the name of "Gaura!" He instantly gives His support to that person, indeed, He bestows all divine opulences.

den śuddha kṛṣṇa-śikṣā jāti, dhana, vidyā, bala nā kore apekṣā
अर्थ

He gives that person genuine realization of the pure teachings of Śrī Kṛṣṇa as found in the Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. While displaying all this inconceivable mercy, He pays no attention to one's caste, material wealth, mundane knowledge, or physical ability.

amani chāḍe māyā-jāl gṛhe thāko, bane thāko, nā thāke jañjāl
अर्थ

Now, dear friends, please reject all of māyā's entangling snares. If you are a householder, then just remain at your home, if you are renounced, then just live in the forest. Either way, nothing more will trouble you.

ār nāiko kalir bhoy ācaṇḍāle den nāma nitāi doyāmoy
अर्थ

We no longer need to fear the terrible Age of Quarrel, for the most merciful Lord Nityānanda gives the Holy Name to anyone and everyone-even to the lowest among men.

bhaktivinoda ḍāki' koy nitāi-caraṇa binā ār nāhi āśroy
अर्थ

Bhaktivinoda loudly calls out and proclaims to all, "OTHER THAN THE LOTUS FEET OF LORD NITYĀNANDA, THERE IS NO SHELTER!"
