Campaka Dama Heri Murachi Rahu Madhava

(1)

campaka dama heri murachi rahu madhaba

locana jharu anuraga

tuya guna-mantara japaye nirantara

bhale dhani tohari sohaga

 

(2)

brsabhanu-nandini japaye rati dini

bharame na bolaye ana

lakha lakha dhani kaha-i madhura bani

swpaane na pata-i kana

 

(3)

purusa-ratana baradharani lota-ota

ko kahu arati-ora

ra bali dha balibala-i na para-i

dharadhara bahe lora

 

(4)

gobinda dasa tuya carane nibedala

kanuko aichana sambada

nicaya janaha  tachu duhkha-khandaka

kebala tuya parasada

 

(1)  When He saw Your campaka garland, Krsna was overcome. Tears of love streamed from His eyes. Without stop He chants the mantra of Your glories. My dear beautiful friend, He lovesYou deeply.

 

(2) O daughter of Vrsabhanu, He chants the mantras of Your glories day and night. He does not glorify any other girl. Millions and millions of girls praise Him with sweet words, but even in His dreams Krsna does not love any girl but You.

 

(3)  He is the jewel of men, the best of lovers. Overcome with love for You, He rolls on the ground. Does He love another girl? He chants, "Ra!" Then He chants, "Dha!" Then He is overcome and He has no power to say anything more. Then flooding streams of tears flow from His eyes.

 

(4) Govinda dasa falls at Your feet and makes this request. Please give to Krsna a reply that will show mercy to Him, a reply that will break His sufferings into pieces.
