kṛṣṇera jateka khelā tāra madhye nara-līlā sarbottama rasera āloya e rasa goloke nāi tabe bolo kothā pāi braja-dhāma tāhāra niloya

अर्थ

Of all of Lord Kṛṣṇa's pastimes, His humanlike pastimes are the best. They are the abode of the rasas. These rasas are not present even in Goloka? Where will I find them, then? Please tell
me. The land of Vraja is the place where they stay.

nitya-līlā dwi-prakāra sāntara o nirantara jāhe mājhe rasikera mana janma-bṛddhi daitya-nāśa mathurā dwārakā-bāsa nitya-līlā sāntare gaṇana

अर्थ

Lord Kṛṣṇa's eternal pastimes are of two kinds: sāntara (manifest at intervals) and nirantara (always manifest). The rasika devotees meditate on these pastimes. Lord Kṛṣṇa's birth, growing up, killing the demons, and living in Mathurā and Dvārakā are counted among His sāntara eternal pastimes.

dibā rātra aṣṭa-bhāge braja-jana anurāge kore kṛṣṇa-līlā nirantara tāhāra birāma nāi sei nitya-līlā bhāi brahma-rudra-śeṣaagocara

अर्थ

With great love Lord Kṛṣṇa enjoys His nirantara pastimes with the people of Vraja throughout the eight periods of the day and night. These pastimes never stop. O my brothers, even Brahmā, Śiva, and Śeṣa cannot see these eternal pastimes.

jñāna joga koro jata hoya tāhā dūra-gata śuddha rāga nayane kebala sei līlā rākhita hoya parānanda bitaroya hoya bhakta-jībana sambala

अर्थ

Throw jñāna and yoga far away. With eyes of pure love gaze on these delightful pastimes, pastimes that are the devotees' life, pastimes that are the great treasure they keep.
