TRANSLATION
1) My Lord Nityananda, the jewel of all virtues, my Lord Nityananda, the jewel of all virtues, has brought the flood
of ecstatic love of God that has drowned the entire world.
2) Bringing this overwhelming
deluge of prema when He returned to Bengal from Jagannatha Puri on Lord Caitanya's order, Nitai has
inundated the assembly of devotees. The fallen nondevotees
did not drown, however, but remained floating on that ecstatic ocean.
3) Lord Nityananda
freely offered this exalted prema, which is difficult
for Lord Brahma to attain, even to the fallen and wretched souls who did not
desire it.
4) The ocean of mercy had
formerly been sealed tight, but Nitai cut a channel
in its boundary to allow the great flooding waves of nectarean
prema to splash from house to house.
5) Locana
dasa says, "Whoever has not worshiped my Nitai or taken advantage of this excellent opportunity
offered by Him knowingly commits suicide."
