Rasika Nagari Gana Siromani lyrics

rasika nāgarī- gaṇa-śiromaṇi, kṛṣṇa-preme sarahaṁsī bṛṣabhānu-rāja, śuddha kalpa-ballī, sarva-lakṣmī-gaṇa-aṁśī

rasika nagari- gana-siromani, krsna-preme sarahamsi brsabhanu-raja, suddha kalpa-balli, sarva-laksmi-gana-amsi

रसिक नागरी गणशिरोमणि, कृष्णप्रेमे सरहंसी बृषभानुराज, शुद्ध कल्पबल्ली, सर्वलक्ष्मीगणअंशी

Srimati Radharani is the crest jewel of all amorous young maidens who take pleasure in relishing transcendental mellows. She is a beautiful swan in the waters of love for Krsna, a transcendental wish-fulfilling creeper on the family tree of king Vrsabhanu, and the original source of all the goddesses of fortune.

rakta paṭṭa-vastra, nitamba-upari, kṣudra ghanṭi dule tā’y kuca-yugopari, duli’ muktā-mālā, citta-hārī śobhā pāy

rakta patta-vastra, nitamba-upari, ksudra ghanti dule ta’y kuca-yugopari, duli’ mukta-mala, citta-hari sobha pay

रक्त पट्टवस्त्र, नितम्बौपरि, क्षुद्र घन्टि दुले ताऽय कुचयुगोपरि, दुलिऽ मुक्तामाला, चित्तहारी शोभा पाय

Upon Her hips She wears red silken cloth on which tiny bells are swinging, and upon Her breasts sways a lovely necklace of pearls. In this way She looks so splendorous that She steals the heart of the beholder.

sarasija-vara-karnikā-samān, atiśoy kāntimatī kaiśora amṛta, tārunya-karpūr, miśra-smitādharā satī

sarasija-vara-karnika-saman, atisoy kantimati kaisora amrta, tarunya-karpur, misra-smitadhara sati

सरसिजवरकर्निकासमान्, अतिशोय कान्तिमती कैशोर अमृत, तारुन्यकर्पूर्, मिश्रस्मिताधरा सती

Her bodily luster is exceptionally effulgent, like the golden whorl of the best of lotus flowers. Her two sweetly smiling lips display the immortal nectar of adolescence mixed with the fragrant camphor of new youthfulness. She is completely faithful to Lord Krsna.

banānte āgata, braja-pati-suta, parama-cañcala-bare heri’ śaṅkākula, nayana-bhaṅgite, ādarete stava kore

banante agata, braja-pati-suta, parama-cancala-bare heri’ sankakula, nayana-bhangite, adarete stava kore

बनान्ते आगत, ब्रजपतिसुत, परमचञ्चलबरे हेरिऽ शङ्काकुल, नयनभङ्गिते, आदरेते स्तव कोरे

Seeing that the supremely mischievous son of Nanda has arrived on the outskirts of the Vrndavana forest as He returns from tending the cows, She becomes stricken with anxiety and affectionately offers prayers to Him by the hints and signals of Her eyes.

brajera mahilā-gaṇera parān, yaśomatī-priya-pātrī lalita lalitā-snehete praphulla- śarīrā lalita-gātrī

brajera mahila-ganera paran, yasomati-priya-patri lalita lalita-snehete praphulla- sarira lalita-gatri

ब्रजेर महिलागणेर परान्, यशोमतीप्रियपात्री ललित ललितास्नेहेते प्रफुल्ल शरीरा ललितगात्री

Srimati Radharani is the life and soul of all the elder women of Vraja, and is especially dear to Mother Yasoda. Basking in the affection of charming Lalita-devi, Radha's bodily form has fully blossomed like a lotus, thus displaying Her beautiful and graceful limbs.

viśākhāra sane, bana-phula tuli’, gāṅthe vaijayantī mālā sakala-śreyasī, kṛṣṇa-vakṣaḥ-sthita, parama-preyasī bālā

visakhara sane, bana-phula tuli’, ganthe vaijayanti mala sakala-sreyasi, krsna-vaksah-sthita, parama-preyasi bala

विशाखार सने, बनफुल तुलिऽ, गाङ्थे वैजयन्ती माला सकलश्रेयसी, कृष्णवक्षःस्थित, परमप्रेयसी बाला

Accompanied by Visakha, Radha picks forest flowers and strings together a vaijayanti flower garland for Krsna. She is the well-wisher of all, and is always situated upon the chest of the Lord, being the most beloved young girlfriend of Krsna.

snigdha venu-rave, druta-gati jāi’, kuñje peye naṭa-bare hasita-nayanī, namra-mukhī satī, karṇa kaṇḍūyana kore

snigdha venu-rave, druta-gati jai’, kunje peye nata-bare hasita-nayani, namra-mukhi sati, karna kanduyana kore

स्निग्ध वेनुरवे, द्रुतगति जाइऽ, कुञ्जे पेये नटबरे हसितनयनी, नम्रमुखी सती, कर्ण कण्डूयन कोरे

Hearing the soft sound of the flute, She moves swiftly through the forest, and finding in the bowers of Vraja the best of dancing actors, the chaste Radha with smiling eyes turns her face downward in shyness while restlessly scratching Her ear.

sparśiyā kamala, vāyu su-śītala, kore jabe kuṇḍa-nīra nidāghe tathāy, nija-gaṇa saha, tuṣaya gokula-vīra

sparsiya kamala, vayu su-sitala, kore jabe kunda-nira nidaghe tathay, nija-gana saha, tusaya gokula-vira

स्पर्शिया कमल, वायु सुशीतल, कोरे जबे कुण्डनीर निदाघे तथाय्, निजगण सह, तुषय गोकुलवीर

When the breeze, which is scented with the fragrance of lotus flowers, makes the waters of Radha-kunda very cool, then, in the warmth of the summer in those cooling waters, Radha along with all Her girlfriends satisfies the hero of Gokula.

bhakativinoda, rūpa-raghunāthe, kohaye caraṇa dhori’ heno rādhā-dāsya, sudhīra-sampad, kabe dibe kṛpā kori’

bhakativinoda, rupa-raghunathe, kohaye carana dhori’ heno radha-dasya, sudhira-sampad, kabe dibe krpa kori’

भकतिविनोद, रूपरघुनाथे, कोहये चरण धोरिऽ हेनो राधादास्य, सुधीरसम्पद्, कबे दिबे कृपा कोरिऽ

Bhaktivinoda says to Rupa and Raghunatha, clasping their lotus feet, "When will you bestow your mercy upon me and give me eternal service to such a Radha as this, for Her service is the wealth of the truly wise."
