Prāṇeśvari! Ei Bāra Karuṇā Kara More
This person places a straw between his teeth and his folded hands over his head. This person appeals to you. O queen of my life, please be merciful to me.
Please engage me in the service of Your lotus feet. Please place me among Your gopi--associates. In their company I shall serve You with great happiness. I shall dress You in nice garments, and serve You in various ways.
I shall anoint You with aromatic sandalwood paste. I shall happily decorate You with various silken garments and jewelled ornaments. I shall always stay near You as Your maidservant.
I shall bring You fragrant water in a jewelled pitcher, and betel-nuts mixed with camphor. I shall bring You a clove-twig, a garland of jasmine flowers, and various imcomparably palatable foods.
When shall I carry out every order hinted or gestured by the gopis? When shall I attain the association of Lalita--devi? Narottama dasa says: I hope that by praying in this way I shall some day become eligible to follow behind the gopi-frineds of the Divine Couple.
