praphullita kanaka-kamala mukha-maṇḍala, nayana khaṇjana tāhe sāje dīgha lalāṭa mājhe, śrī-hari-mandira sāje, karaṇga kaupīna kaṭi-mājhe
Translation

The circle of His face is a blossoming golden lotus. His eyes are restless khaṇjana birds. His broad forehead is anointed with the tilaka that is Lord Hari's temple. He carries a waterpot. A kaupīna is tied about His waist.

2 Refrain
jaya jaya gorācānda kalu/śa-bināśa patita-pābana jaga-tāraṇa kāraṇa, saṇkīrtana parakāśa
Translation

Glory, glory to Lord Gauracandra, the destroyer of sins, the purifier of the fallen, the savior of the worlds, the Lord who revealed the saṇkīrtana movement of chanting the holy names!

ā-jānu-lambita bhuja-daṇḍa birājita, gale dole mālatī dāma bhubana-mano-hara dīrgha kalebara, pulaka kadamba anupāma
Translation

His glorious arms reach to His knees. A mālatī garland swings to and fro from His neck. His tall form enchants the world's hearts. Like kadamba filaments, the hairs of His body stand erect in ecstasy.

prātara-aruṇa-ruci śrī-pada-pallaba abheda adwaits nityānanda bijayānanda dāse, ānanda-sāyare bhāse, carana-kamala makaranda
Translation

The blossoming flowers of the soles of His feet are red like the rising sun. He is not different from Advaita and Nityānanda. The nectar at the lotus flowers of His feet makes Vijayānanda dāsa float in an ocean of bliss.
