LYRICS:
(Refrain)
saye kiba se-i nayāna cāhani
hāsira holole more parāṇa-putalī dole
dite cā-i yaubana nichani
(1)
bhāle se candana cānda kāminī mohana phānda
āndhāre kariyāche ālā
meghera upara kibā sadā-i udaya kare
niśi diśi śaśī ṣola-kalā
(2)
kibā se cūḍāra ṭhāṭa daśa nakha cānda nāṭa
aparūpa baḿśī bājā-ite
hera-ite se-i mukha mane haya yata sukha
jite ki pāriye pāsārite
(3)
kula śīla yata chila mane lāge saba gela
dekhiyā bāreka se-i rūpa
gobinda-dāsera cite aichana māgaye go
naba anurāgera swarūpa
TRANSLATION
(Refrain) I gaze at Him with my eyes. The puppet of my life-breath is tossed to and fro by the waves of His smiles. I gaze at Him. I worship His youthful grace.
-
The sandal-paste-moon on His forehead is a trap to charm and catch beautiful girls. It is effulgence that lights up the darkness. He is a raincloud where rests a full moon that lights up the night.
-
His hair is graceful. The ten moons of His fingernails dance as He plays His wonderful flute. When I gaze at His face, my heart is filled with bliss. I am overcome. How can I forget Him?
-
Now that I have once seen His handsome form, I find that piety, good character, and all else have fled from my heart. In his heart Govinda dasa prays that in this way he may also fall in love with Lord Krsna.
