  1. Verse 1

    aruṇa kamala dale, seja bichāibo, bosāibo kiśora kiśorī alakā āvṛta, mukha paṅkaja manohara, marakata śyāma hema gaurī

    aruna kamala dale, seja bichaibo, bosaibo kisora kisori alaka avrta, mukha pankaja manohara, marakata syama hema gauri

    अरुण कमल दले, सेज बिछाइबो, बोसाइबो किशोर किशोरी अलका आवृत, मुख पङ्कज मनोहर, मरकत श्याम हेम गौरी

    When will I scatter red lotus petals before the charming youthful Divine Couple, whose lotus faces are decorated with curling locks of hair, and who are like a dark sapphire and glittering gold?

  2. Verse 2

    prāṇeśvari! kobe more hobe kṛpā diṭhi? ājñāya āniyā kobe, vividha phula vara, śunibo vacana duhu miṭhi

    pranesvari! kobe more hobe krpa dithi? ajnaya aniya kobe, vividha phula vara, sunibo vacana duhu mithi

    प्राणेश्वरि! कोबे मोरे होबे कृपा दिठि? आज्ञाय आनिया कोबे, विविध फुल वर, शुनिबो वचन दुहु मिठि

    O queen of my life, when will you place Your merciful glance on me? When, directly hearing the orders of the Divine Couple, will I bring them many flowers and sweet candies?

  3. Verse 3

    mṛgamada tilaka, sindūra bonāyabo, lepabo candana gandhe. gāṅthi mālatī phula, hāra pahirāobo, dhāoyābo madhukara vṛnde

    mrgamada tilaka, sindura bonayabo, lepabo candana gandhe. ganthi malati phula, hara pahiraobo, dhaoyabo madhukara vrnde

    मृगमद तिलक, सिन्दूर बोनायबो, लेपबो चन्दन गन्धे. गाङ्थि मालती फुल, हार पहिराओबो, धाओयाबो मधुकर वृन्दे

    When will I anoint the Divine Couple with tilaka markings made of musk and red sindura? When will I anoint Their bodies with sandalwood paste? When will I string a garland of jasmine flowers for Them, and then have to flee from the swarm of bumble-bees eager to claim the honey of those flowers?

  4. Verse 4

    lalitā kobe more, vījana deyabo, vījabo māruta mande śrama-jala sakala, miṭabo duhu kalevara, herabo parama ānande

    lalita kobe more, vijana deyabo, vijabo maruta mande srama-jala sakala, mitabo duhu kalevara, herabo parama anande

    ललिता कोबे मोरे, वीजन देयबो, वीजबो मारुत मन्दे श्रमजल सकल, मिटबो दुहु कलेवर, हेरबो परम आनन्दे

    When, on Lalita's order will I gently fan the Divine Couple, banishing the perspiration from Their transcendental bodies? When will I see the Divine Couple, my heart filling with spiritual bliss?

  5. Verse 5

    narottama dāsa, āśa pada paṅkaja, sevana madhurī pāne hobo heno dina, nā dekhiye kona cihna, duhu jana herabo nayāne

    narottama dasa, asa pada pankaja, sevana madhuri pane hobo heno dina, na dekhiye kona cihna, duhu jana herabo nayane

    नरोत्तम दास, आश पद पङ्कज, सेवन मधुरी पाने होबो हेनो दिन, ना देखिये कोन चिह्न, दुहु जन हेरबो नयाने

    Narottama dasa hopes that some day he will be able to drink the sweet honey of the service of the lotus feet of the Divine Couple. Will that day ever be? I do not see any indication that I will become able to see the Divine Couple directly with my own eyes.
