TRANSLATION

1. Then Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu began to speak to Srivasa with very affectionate and sweet words. He said, “My dear Srivasa, you are actually My very old servant. Indeed, I am staying in this world only due to your unalloyed love for Me.”

2. “You, Srivasa Pandita, are factually the commander-in-chief of all of My devotees. Today your glorious character will be acclaimed throughout the three worlds.”

3. “You are never subject to the imprisoning bondage of Mayadevi, the proprietress of this prison-like material world. Indeed, this fact is attested to by all the people of the world.”

4. “You have dedicated unto Me all of your wealth, followers, body and household paraphernalia, and thus you have become most joyful by being so nicely situated in My eternal service.”

5. “The whole of your existence in this world is only for the purpose of nourishing My eternal pastimes. Thus your ideal behavior as a transcendental family man is exemplary for instructing all the materialistic householders."

6. “Sri Nityananda Prabhu and I are so much obliged to you due to your pure love for Us. Indeed, We know that you enjoy great happiness by considering Us to be your very own sons.”

7. “We are truly your eternal sons, for We see that you are not at all attached to your temporary sons, who are all subject to the material conditions of creation and destruction.”

8. “Because of your pure devotion I am eternally indebted to you. And because of your saintly character you are also quite deserving of My indebtedness.”

9. Hearing these loving words of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, this rascal Bhaktivinoda now begs at the feet of Srivasa Thakura in humble supplication to receive the lotus feet of Lord Gauranga.
