jaya jaya kalaraba nadīyā nagare

janama labhila gaurā śacīra udare

TRANSLATION

1. As sweet sounds of “Glory! Glory!” filled the towns of Nadiya, Lord Gaura took birth in Saci’s womb.

2. The day was the full-moon day of the month of Phalguna. The star was Phalguni. At that auspicious moment Lord Gaura, the jewel of the twice-born, took birth.

3. When Lord Gaura’s effulgence defeated the full moon, the blinding darkness gave up all hope. Deeply dejected, it fled far away.

4. During Dvapara-yuga, Lord Krsna descended into King Nanda’s home. The people of the world thought Krsna had taken birth in Yasoda’s womb.

5. In the same way, to deliver the fallen souls in Kali-yuga, Lord Gaura took birth in Saci’s womb in Nadiya.

6. Vasudeva Ghosa says: In my heart I keep my hope. In my heart I take shelter of Lord Gaura’s feet.

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

This is to be sung in Raga Todi.
