TRANSLATION

Formerly His hair was bound in a topknot. Now He has no hair. Rejecting His colorful garments of a dancing actor, now He wears a sannyasiÂ’s

kaupina .

Formerly He carried a pot for milking cows. Now He carries a sannyasiÂ’s

waterpot . Now His complexion is fair.

In Treta-yuga

He carried an archerÂ’s bow (in the form of Sri Rama ). In Dvapara-yuga He carried a flute (Sri Krsna ). In Kali- yuga He carries a

danda (Sri Caitanya

Mahaprabhu ). Now He is a sannyasi .

Balarama

dasa says: O residents of Nadiya , please hear. Balarama has become an avadhuta , and Krsna has become a sannyasi .

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

This is to be sung in Raga Gandhara .
