nācata gaura naṭana paṇḍita-bara kuṅkuma-dāminī-dāma-damana tanu, maṇḍita nirupama bipula pulaka-bhara
Translation

Lord Gaura, the great paṇḍita of dancing, dances. His form eclipses the splendor of kuṅkuma and lightning. His peerless ornament is the hairs of His body standing erect in ecstasy.

aruṇa adhara mṛdu cānda-badana lasa, daśana kunda lahu hāsa amiyā jhara nayana-khañja jana-rañjana rasamaya, cāhani kata śata madana-garaba-hara
Translation

His lips are red. The moon of His graceful face glistens. His teeth are jasmine flowers. His gentle smile is a cascading stream of nectar. His nectar-filled lotus eyes delight the people. From how many hundreds of Kāmadevas does He remove the pride?

kanaka-mṛṇāla-nindi bhuja-yuga tuli, bolata hari hari antara gara gara maṅgalamaya komala su-lalita pada, bibidha bhaṅgī sāñe dharaye dharaṇī-para
Translation

He raises His two arms, arms that rebuke the golden lotus stems. He chants, “Hari! Hari!” His heart is overcome with ecstatic spiritual love. His soft and graceful feet are filled with all auspiciousness. Serving in many ways, the earth upholds His feet.

bāja jhañjha su-khamaka khola kata, gāyata madhura madhura sura-parikara bitarata prema-ratana dhana jaga-bhari, bañcita ku-mati e narahari pāmara
Translation

How many rhythms do the kholas and khamakas play? The Lord’s divine associates sing sweet sweet songs. Lord Gaura freely gives the world the precious gift of ecstatic spiritual world. He fills the world with that gift. Only the wicked-hearted wretch Narahari did not receive that gift. Only he was cheated.
