Sri Rupera Vairagya Kale lyrics

śrī rūpera vairāgya-kāle, sanātana bandīśāle viṣāda bhāvaye mane mane

sri rupera vairagya-kale, sanatana bandisale visada bhavaye mane mane

श्री रूपेर वैराग्यकाले, सनातन बन्दीशाले विषाद भावये मने मने

When Sri Rupa Gosvami renounced the world, Sanatana was in prison. Greatly distressed, he thought within his mind:

rūpere karunā kari, trāna koilā gaura hari mo adhame nā koilo smarane

rupere karuna kari, trana koila gaura hari mo adhame na koilo smarane

रूपेरे करुना करि, त्रान कोइला गौर हरि मो अधमे ना कोइलो स्मरने

“Gaura Hari has mercifully delivered Sri Rupa but He has neglected this fallen one.

mora karma doṣā phānde, hate paye gole bāndhe rākhiyāche kārāgāre pheli

mora karma dosa phande, hate paye gole bandhe rakhiyache karagare pheli

मोर कर्म दोषा फान्दे, हते पये गोले बान्धे राखियाछे कारागारे फेलि

“I am bound hands and neck by the sinful reactions of my previous karma, and this has locked me in this prison.

ā;pana karuna phanse, dṛḍha bāndhī mora keṣe carana nikate leha tuli

a;pana karuna phanse, drdha bandhi mora kese carana nikate leha tuli

आ;पन करुन फन्से, दृढ बान्धी मोर केषे चरन निकते लेह तुलि

“With the rope of Your mercy, please firmly tie up my hair and drag me to Your lotus feet.

paścāte agādha jala, dui pāṣe dāvānala, sammukhe sāndhilo vyādha bāṇa

pascate agadha jala, dui pase davanala, sammukhe sandhilo vyadha bana

पश्चाते अगाध जल, दुइ पाषे दावानल, सम्मुखे सान्धिलो व्याध बाण

“Behind me is a sea of unlimited depth, on both sides is fire, and before me stands a hunter with his arrow aimed.

kātare harinī dāke, padiyā viṣama pāke tumi nātha more kara trāna

katare harini dake, padiya visama pake tumi natha more kara trana

कातरे हरिनी दाके, पदिया विषम पाके तुमि नाथ मोरे कर त्रान

“In this way a she deer is entrapped in great danger and is crying in grief, ‘O Lord, please save me from this disaster.’

jagāi-mādhāi hele, vāsudeve ajāmile anāyāse karilā uddhāra

jagai-madhai hele, vasudeve ajamile anayase karila uddhara

जगाइमाधाइ हेले, वासुदेवे अजामिले अनायासे करिला उद्धार

“You effortlessly liberated Jagai and Madhai just as Vasudeva liberated Ajamila.

karunā ābhāsa kori, sanātana padatari deha yena ghoṣaye saṁsāra

karuna abhasa kori, sanatana padatari deha yena ghosaye samsara

करुना आभास कोरि, सनातन पदतरि देह येन घोषये संसार

“At least with a shadow of Your mercy give me the shelter of Your lotus feet, which are like a boat. The whole world will glorify Your merciful deeds.

e-duḥkha-samudra-ghore, nistāra karaha more tomā vinā nāhi anya jana

e-duhkha-samudra-ghore, nistara karaha more toma vina nahi anya jana

एदुःखसमुद्रघोरे, निस्तार करह मोरे तोमा विना नाहि अन्य जन

“Kindly lift me out of this deep ocean of suffering. No one else can free me from this state.”

hena-kāle anya jane, alakṣite sanātane patra dilā rūpera likhana

hena-kale anya jane, alaksite sanatane patra dila rupera likhana

हेनकाले अन्य जने, अलक्षिते सनातने पत्र दिला रूपेर लिखन

After receiving a confidential letter from his brother, Rupa Gosvami, Sri Sanatana thought like this.

rūpera likhana peye, mane ānandita hoye sadākare gaurāṅga dheyāna

rupera likhana peye, mane anandita hoye sadakare gauranga dheyana

रूपेर लिखन पेये, मने आनन्दित होये सदाकरे गौराङ्ग धेयान

He felt pleased within his heart and began to meditate on Lord Gauranga.

e rādhā vallabha dāsa, mane hoilo abhilāṣa patrī paḍi karilā gopana

e radha vallabha dasa, mane hoilo abhilasa patri padi karila gopana

ए राधा वल्लभ दास, मने होइलो अभिलाष पत्री पडि करिला गोपन

This Radha Vallabha Dasa says, “After reading Rupa's letter Sanatana felt pleased within his heart, but he kept the letter as a secret.”
