  1. Verse 1

    rādhikā-caraṇa-padma, sakala śreyera sadma, jatane je nāhi ārādhilo rādhā-padmāṅkita dhāma, bṛndābana jār nāma, tāhā je nā āśroy korilo

    radhika-carana-padma, sakala sreyera sadma, jatane je nahi aradhilo radha-padmankita dhama, brndabana jar nama, taha je na asroy korilo

    राधिकाचरणपद्म, सकल श्रेयेर सद्म, जतने जे नाहि आराधिलो राधापद्माङ्कित धाम, बृन्दाबन जार नाम, ताहा जे ना आश्रोय कोरिलो

    He who has failed to carefully worship the lotus feet of Srimati Radhika, which are the abode of all auspiciousness; he who has not taken shelter in the transcendental abode known as Vrndavana, which is decorated with the beautiful lotus flower named Radha...

  2. Verse 2

    rādhikā-bhāva-gambhīr, citta jebā mahādhīr, gaṇa-saṅga nā koilo jīvane kemone se śyāmānanda, rasa-sindhu-snānānanda, labhibe bujhoha eka-mane

    radhika-bhava-gambhir, citta jeba mahadhir, gana-sanga na koilo jivane kemone se syamananda, rasa-sindhu-snanananda, labhibe bujhoha eka-mane

    राधिकाभावगम्भीर्, चित्त जेबा महाधीर्, गणसङ्ग ना कोइलो जीवने केमोने से श्यामानन्द, रससिन्धुस्नानानन्द, लभिबे बुझोह एकमने

    ...he who in this life has not associated with the devotees of Radhika, who are very wise and whose devotion for Radha is very deep , how will such a person ever experience the bliss of bathing in the ocean of Lord Syama's sublime mellows? Please understand this most attentively!

  3. Verse 3

    rādhikā ujjvala-raser ācārya rādhā-mādhava-śuddha-prem vicārya

    radhika ujjvala-raser acarya radha-madhava-suddha-prem vicarya

    राधिका उज्ज्वलरसेर आचार्य राधामाधवशुद्धप्रेम विचार्य

    Srimati Radhika is the exemplary teacher of the brilliant mellows of conjugal love. This pure love between Radha and Madhava is worthy of discussion and contemplation.

  4. Verse 4

    je dharilo rādhā-pada parama jatane se pailo kṛṣṇa-pada amūlya-ratane

    je dharilo radha-pada parama jatane se pailo krsna-pada amulya-ratane

    जे धरिलो राधापद परम जतने से पैलो कृष्णपद अमूल्यरतने

    He who has grasped hold of the lotus feet of Radha with great care obtains the lotus feet of Krsna, which are like priceless jewels.

  5. Verse 5

    rādhā-pada vinā kabhu kṛṣṇa nāhi mile rādhār dāsīr kṛṣṇa sarva-vede bole

    radha-pada vina kabhu krsna nahi mile radhar dasir krsna sarva-vede bole

    राधापद विना कभु कृष्ण नाहि मिले राधार दासीर कृष्ण सर्ववेदे बोले

    Without taking shelter of the lotus feet of Radha, one can never personally meet Lord Krsna. The Vedic scriptures declare that Krsna is the property of the maidservants of Sri Radha.

  6. Verse 6

    choḍata dhana-jan, kalatra-suta-mita, choḍata karama geyān rādhā-pada-paṅkaja, madhurata sevan, bhakativinoda paramān

    chodata dhana-jan, kalatra-suta-mita, chodata karama geyan radha-pada-pankaja, madhurata sevan, bhakativinoda paraman

    छोडत धनजन्, कलत्रसुतमित, छोडत करम गेयान राधापदपङ्कज, मधुरत सेवन्, भकतिविनोद परमान

    Abandoning wealth, followers, wife, sons, and friends, and giving up materialistic activities and intellectual knowledge, being absorbed in the sweetness of service to the lotus feet of Srimati Radharani-this is Bhaktivinoda's conviction.
