Intoxicated by the ecstasy of spiritual love for Lord Gaura, with a merciful glance Lord Nitāi now makes the whole world also intoxicated with that ecstasy.
Raising His arms, arms that reach to His knees, Lord Nitāi dances. Hu hugs the fallen souls. He sways to and fro. Overcome with ecstatic love, he falls to the ground.
How much spiritual bliss floods His heart? That bliss takes the form of tears, tears that flow down His face and chest. He floats in those tears.
The hairs on His every limbs stand erect. Seeing the glory of His spiritual form, Kāmadeva falls unconscious.
A gentle smile rests on His moonlike face. His sweet words are like a flood of nectar.
How glorious are His ever-new graceful reddish feet! To Lord Nitāi’s feet Narahari dāsa dedicates His every breath.
