Jaya Jaya Gobinda Gopāla Gadādhara

Glory, glory to You, O Lord Govinda, who protect the cows and hold a mace. O Lord Kṛṣṇacandra, O ocean of mercy, please be merciful to me.

Glory to You, O Lord Govinda, O master, O master of the cowherd boys, O lifter of Govardhana Hill, O Śrī Rādhikā's life-treasure, O giver of liberation, O enemy of Mura!

If one does not chant Lord Hari's holy names or Lord Govinda's holy names, day after day one passes this human birth without any good result.

My days and nights I passed in fruitless labor. I did not worship Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa's lotus feet.

I came to this world of birth and death to worship Lord Kṛṣṇa. Alas! I was bound by māyā's illusions. I was made dull and stunted like a tree.

My past karma pushed me into Kali-yuga's sins. In this life i did not dive into the nectar of Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy names.

O people, please worship Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy names. All else is an illusion. Don't walk by the path where Yamarāja will follow you.

Lord Kṛṣṇa's name and Lord Hari's name are very sweet. He who worships Lord Kṛṣṇa is very wise.

He in whose ear Lord Kṛṣṇa's name enters becomes free of sins. In this way the brāhmaṇa Hari dāsa chants the glories of the holy name.
