TRANSLATION
1) The divine couple, Sri Sri Radha and Krsna,
is my life and soul. In life or death I have no other refuge but Them.
2) In a forest of small kadamba trees on the bank of the Yamuna,
I will seat the divine couple on a throne made of brilliant jewels.
3) I will anoint Their dark and fair forms with sandalwood paste scented with
cuya, and I will fan Them with a camara
whisk. Oh, when will I behold Their moonlike faces?
4) After stringing together
garlands of malati flowers I will place them around Their necks, and I will offer tambula
scented with camphor to Their lotus mouths.
5) With the permission of
all the sakhis, headed by Lalita
and Visakha, I will serve the lotus feet of Radha and Krsna.
6) Narottama
dasa, the servant of the servant of Sri Krsna Caitanya Prabhu, longs for this service to the divine couple.
