Even those who are devotees of My devotee are very dear to Me - my only hope

Posted by dinesh

"I am completely under the control of My devotees. Indeed, I am not at all independent. Because My devotees are completely devoid of material desires, I sit only within the cores of their hearts. What to speak of My devotee, even those who are devotees of My devotee are very dear to Me." (Srimad. bhag. 9.4.63)

Lyrics:

abhinava-kuṭmala-guccha-samujjvala-kuñcita-kuntala-bhāra

praṇayi-janerita-vandana-saha-kṛta-cūrṇita-vana-ghana-sāra (1)

jaya jaya sundara nanda-kumāra

saurabha-saṅkaṭa-vṛndāvana-taṭa-vihita-vasanta-vihāra (dhruva)

adhara-virājita-mandatara-smita-lobhita-nija-parivāra

caṭula-dṛg-añcala-racita-rasoccala-rādhā-madana-vikāra (2)

bhuvana-vimohana-mañjula-nartana-gati-valgita-maṇi-hāra

nija-vallabha-jana-suhṛt-sanātana-citta-viharad-avatāra (3)

Translation:

An assortment of tender spring flower-buds decorate His abundant curly locks of hair. On His body is peerless camphor paste, applied so affectionately by friends and relatives who welcome Him sweetly. (1)

All glories, All glories to the beautiful son of Nanda! Imbued with an assortment of ecstatic fragrances, He roams freely in spring season on the river-banks of Vrindavana. ||dhruva-refrain||

On His face rests a mild smile, which entices His family. The restless corners of His eyes create an upsurge of ecstatic rasas, which cause Sri Rādhā to be agitated by Cupid. (2)

Universally enchanting are His charming dances and gait, His necklace of assorted pearls sways to and fro by such movements. To His near and dear ones, He is the ever well-wisher and the personified Lord who roams freely through the scope of their hearts! (3)

Note: Last line of the song is a play on words. It can also be translated as – "He is the personified Lord (avatāra) who roams freely (viharat) within the heart of my near and dear (nija-vallabha) ever well-wisher Śrī Sanātana Goswāmī (suhṛt-sanātana)).
