bhāi-re! śacīr aṅgane kabhu, mādhavendra-purī prabhu, prasādānna korena bhojan khāite khāite tā’ra, āilo prema sudurbār, bole, śuno sannyāsīra gaṇ
bhai-re! sacir angane kabhu, madhavendra-puri prabhu, prasadanna korena bhojan khaite khaite ta’ra, ailo prema sudurbar, bole, suno sannyasira gan
भाइरे! शचीर अङ्गने कभु, माधवेन्द्रपुरी प्रभु, प्रसादान्न कोरेन भोजन खाइते खाइते ताऽर, आइलो प्रेम सुदुर्बार्, बोले, शुनो सन्न्यासीर गण

- Verse 2
mocā-ghanṭa phula-baḍi, dāli-dālnā-caccaḍi, śacī-mātā korilo randhan tā’ra śuddhā bhakti heri’, bhojana korilo hari, sudhā-sama e anna-byañjan
moca-ghanta phula-badi, dali-dalna-caccadi, saci-mata korilo randhan ta’ra suddha bhakti heri’, bhojana korilo hari, sudha-sama e anna-byanjan
मोचाघन्ट फुलबडि, दालिदाल्नाचच्चडि, शचीमाता कोरिलो रन्धन ताऽर शुद्धा भक्ति हेरिऽ, भोजन कोरिलो हरि, सुधासम ए अन्नब्यञ्जन
"Mother Saci has cooked many varieties of prasad, such as semi-solid delicacies made with banana flower, a special dahl preparation, baskets of fruits, small square cakes made of lentils and cooked-down milk, among others. Seeing her pure devotion, Lord Krsna personally ate all these preparations, which are just like nectar.
- Verse 3
yoge yogī pāy jāhā, bhoge āj ha’be tāhā, `hari’ boli’ khāo sabe bhāi kṛṣṇaera prasād-anna, tri-jagat kore dhanya, tripurāri nāce jāhā pāi’
yoge yogi pay jaha, bhoge aj ha’be taha, `hari’ boli’ khao sabe bhai krsnaera prasad-anna, tri-jagat kore dhanya, tripurari nace jaha pai’
योगे योगी पाय जाहा, भोगे आज हऽबे ताहा, `हरिऽ बोलिऽ खाओ सबे भाइ कृष्णएर प्रसादन्न, त्रिजगत कोरे धन्य, त्रिपुरारि नाचे जाहा पाइऽ
"O brothers! All the results that the mystic yogis obtain by the diligent practice of yoga will be obtained today by taking these remnants of the Lord. Everyone come and eat the prasad of Lord Hari and shout His holy name! The three worlds are made glorious by the presence of the food-grains left by Lord Krsna. Even Lord Tripurari (Lord Siva) dances in great joy on obtaining that prasad.”
