jugala-mūrtti, dekhiyā mora, parama-ānanda hoy prasāda-sevā korite hoy, sakala prapañcha jay 5 By beholding the Deity forms of the divine couple, Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Krishna, I feel the greatest joy. By honouring the Lord’s prasādam I conquer over all worldly illusions.
je-dina gṛhe, bhajana dekhi, gṛhete goloka bhāya charaṇa-sīdhu, dekhiyā gaṅgā, sukha nā sīmā pāya 6 Goloka Vṛndāvan appears in my home whenever I see the worship and service of Lord Hari going on there. Upon seeing the Ganges, which is a river of nectar emanating from the lotus feet of the Lord, my happiness knows no bounds.
tulasī dekhi’, juḍāya prāṇa, mādhava-toṣaṇī jāni’ gaura-priya, śāka-sevane, jīvana sārthaka māni 7 The sight of the holy Tulasī tree soothes my soul, for I know she gives pleasure to Lord Krishna. By honouring śāk (a green leafy vegetable preparation), a dear favourite of Lord Chaitanya, I consider life worthwhile.
bhakativinoda, kṛṣṇa-bhajane, anukūla pāya jāhā prati-divase, parama-sukhe, svīkāra koroye tāhā 8 Whatever Bhaktivinoda obtains that is conducive for the service of Śrī Krishna, he accepts every day with the greatest of joy.
