- Verse 1
jei rati janme jāra sei mata rasa tāra rasa mukhya pañca-bidha hoya gauṇa-sapta-rasa punaḥ hoya ratira anuguṇa ratira sambandha bhābāśroya
jei rati janme jara sei mata rasa tara rasa mukhya panca-bidha hoya gauna-sapta-rasa punah hoya ratira anuguna ratira sambandha bhabasroya
जेइ रति जन्मे जार सेइ मत रस तार रस मुख्य पञ्चबिध होय गौणसप्तरस पुनः होय रतिर अनुगुण रतिर सम्बन्ध भाबाश्रोय
According to the particular type of attachment that attracts one to love Krsna, the devotee becomes attached to that degree in one of the five direct mellows. Besides to this direct attachment, there are occasional manifestations of the seven indirect mellows, which follow the direct attachment. Thus the seven indirect attachments remain subjugated under the shelter of the ecstatic emotions presented by the more predominant direct mellow.
- Verse 2
pañca mukhya madhye bhāi madhurera guṇa gāi sarba-śreṣṭha rasa-rāja boli guṇa anya rase jata madhurete āche tata āra bahu bale hoya bali
panca mukhya madhye bhai madhurera guna gai sarba-srestha rasa-raja boli guna anya rase jata madhurete ache tata ara bahu bale hoya bali
पञ्च मुख्य मध्ये भाइ मधुरेर गुण गाइ सर्बश्रेष्ठ रसराज बोलि गुण अन्य रसे जत मधुरेते आछे तत आर बहु बले होय बलि
Oh brothers! Now listen as I sing of the glories of the madhura rasa, the sweet conjugal mellow, for it is said to be the best and most powerful rasa amongst all the five direct mellows. Indeed, it is just like the king of all mellows. All the transcendental qualities of the other mellows are fully present in this topmost of all rasas, and therefore it is most powerful because of the combined potencies of all the other mellows contained within it. And also, the other mellows individually become more powerful when they are within the madhura rasa than they are when they stand on their own.
- Verse 3
gauṇa rasa āche jata saba sañcārīra mata haya srṅgarera puṣṭi kore śrī-rūpera anugata bhajane je hoya rata sthiti tāra kebale madhure
gauna rasa ache jata saba sancarira mata haya srngarera pusti kore sri-rupera anugata bhajane je hoya rata sthiti tara kebale madhure
गौण रस आछे जत सब सञ्चारीर मत हय स्र्ङ्गरेर पुष्टि कोरे श्रीरूपेर अनुगत भजने जे होय रत स्थिति तार केबले मधुरे
All the seven indirect mellows give transitory stimulation to the madhura rasa (also called srngara rasa). They also circulate to nourish and supplement the ecstasies of the conjugal mellow. Those devotees who develop attachment for the worship that follows in the footsteps of Srila Rupa Gosvami become situated and firmly established only in this conjugal mellow.
- Verse 4
madhura ujjwala-rasa sadā śṛṅgārera baśa braja-raja-nandana biṣoya aiśwarja su-gupta ta'te mādhurja-prabhābe mate tāhāra āśroya bhakta-coya
madhura ujjwala-rasa sada srngarera basa braja-raja-nandana bisoya aiswarja su-gupta ta'te madhurja-prabhabe mate tahara asroya bhakta-coya
मधुर उज्ज्wअलरस सदा शृङ्गारेर बश ब्रजरजनन्दन बिषोय ऐश्wअर्ज सुगुप्त तऽते माधुर्जप्रभाबे मते ताहार आश्रोय भक्तचोय
The madhura rasa is known as the most brilliant mellow, and its main subject is Sri Krsna, the Son of the King of Vraja. Indeed, He actually lets Himself be controlled and subjugated by this loving mellow. The majestic opulences of the Lord (aisvarya) are covered over, and the powerful maddening influence of its transcendental sweetness (madhurya) is the sole refuge of all the assembled devotees, who are the object of this mellow.
