  1. Verse 1

    mṛta śiśu lo'ye tabe bhakata-batsala bhakata-saṅgete gāya śrī-nāma-maṅgala

    mrta sisu lo'ye tabe bhakata-batsala bhakata-sangete gaya sri-nama-mangala

    मृत शिशु लोऽये तबे भकतबत्सल भकतसङ्गेते गाय श्रीनाममङ्गल

    (1-2) Lord Caitanya, Who is so affectionate to His own devotees, then took the dead boy and, along with all the devotees, began to chant the most auspicious sound vibration of the holy names. Thus singing and singing, they all arrived on the bank of the Ganga (the Jahnavi). Then they performed the proper funeral rites with some water from the Ganga.

  2. Verse 2

    gāite gāite gelā jāhnabīra tīre balake satkāra koilo jāhnabīra nīre

    गाइते गाइते गेला जाह्नबीर तीरे बलके सत्कार कोइलो जाह्नबीर नीरे

    jāhnabī bolena mama saubhāgya apāra saphala hoilo brata chilo je āmāra

    जाह्नबी बोलेन मम सौभाग्य अपार सफल होइलो ब्रत छिलो जे आमार

    The personified Gangamayi, Sri Jahnavi-devi, then appeared herself and said, "Such unlimited auspicious fortune has become mine today! Now I have achieved the successful fruits of all the vows and penances I had undertaken!"

    mṛta śiśu dena gorā jāhnabīra jale uṭhali jāhnabī debī śiśu loya kole

    मृत शिशु देन गोरा जाह्नबीर जले उठलि जाह्नबी देबी शिशु लोय कोले

    Then Lord Caitanya personally put the boy's body into the river. Immediately thereafter, Jahnavi Devi picked up the body and took him on her lap.

    Bringing the dead boy out of the water, she touched the lotus feet of Lord Gaura. With the body still on her lap, she began to tremble in ecstatic love for the Lord.

    jāhnabīra bhāba dekhi' jata bhakta-gaṇa śrī-nāma-maṅgala-dhwani kore anukhaṇa

    जाह्नबीर भाब देखिऽ जत भक्तगण श्रीनाममङ्गलध्wअनि कोरे अनुखण

    Seeing such an ecstatic mood being exhibited by Sri Jahnavi Devi, all the assembled devotees there immediately began chanting the auspicious holy names incessantly.

  7. Verse 7

    swarge hoite debe kore puṣpa-bariṣaṇa bimāna saṅkula tabe chailo gagana

    swarge hoite debe kore puspa-barisana bimana sankula tabe chailo gagana

    स्wअर्गे होइते देबे कोरे पुष्पबरिषण बिमान सङ्कुल तबे छैलो गगन

    From the heavens, the demigods began to shower flowers like rainfall. They crowded in the sky, almost blocking out the sunlight with their innumerable airplanes.

  8. Verse 8

    ei rūpe nānā-bhābe hoiyā magana satkāra koriyā snāna koilo sarba-jana

    ei rupe nana-bhabe hoiya magana satkara koriya snana koilo sarba-jana

    एइ रूपे नानाभाबे होइया मगन सत्कार कोरिया स्नान कोइलो सर्बजन

    In this way, everyone on all sides was absorbed in various ecstasies. After performing the funeral rites, they all took their bath in the Ganga.

  9. Verse 9

    parama ānande sabe gelo nija ghare bhakatibinoda māje gorā-bhāba-bhare

    parama anande sabe gelo nija ghare bhakatibinoda maje gora-bhaba-bhare

    परम आनन्दे सबे गेलो निज घरे भकतिबिनोद माजे गोराभाबभरे

    In great happiness, everyone then returned to their respective homes, and Bhaktivinoda is now completely immersed in the transcendental ecstasies of Lord Gaurasundara.
