Yan Kali Rupa Sarira Na Dharata lyrics

yaṅ kali rūpa śarīra na dharata taṅ vraja-prema-mahānidhi kuṭharīka, kon kapāṭa ughāḍata

yan kali rupa sarira na dharata tan vraja-prema-mahanidhi kutharika, kon kapata ughadata

यङ कलि रूप शरीर न धरत तङ व्रजप्रेममहानिधि कुठरीक, कोन कपाट उघाडत

If Rupa Gosvami had not appeared in Kali-yuga, who would have opened the great store-house of vraja-prema and distributed its contents freely?

nīra-kṣīra-haṁsana, pāna-vidhāyana, kon pṛthak kari pāyata ko saba tyaji, bhaji’ vṛndāvana, ko saba grantha viracita

nira-ksira-hamsana, pana-vidhayana, kon prthak kari payata ko saba tyaji, bhaji’ vrndavana, ko saba grantha viracita

नीरक्षीरहंसन, पानविधायन, कोन पृथक करि पायत को सब त्यजि, भजिऽ वृन्दावन, को सब ग्रन्थ विरचित

Just as a swan separates milk from water, who could have separated the rasas to taste them? Abandoning everything, he performed bhajana in Vrndavana and wrote his rasika literatures.

jaba pitu vana-phula, phalata nānā-vidha, manorāji aravinda so madhukara vinu, pāna kon jānata, vidyamāna kari bandha

jaba pitu vana-phula, phalata nana-vidha, manoraji aravinda so madhukara vinu, pana kon janata, vidyamana kari bandha

जब पितु वनफुल, फलत नानाविध, मनोराजि अरविन्द सो मधुकर विनु, पान कोन जानत, विद्यमान करि बन्ध

When the yellow forest flowers blossom and fruits ripen, he lived like a bee taking the nectar from lotuses , who could have understood the nectar he was collecting?

ko jānata, mathurā vṛndāvana, ko jānata vraja-nīta ko jānata, rādhā-mādhava-rati, ko jānata soi prīta

ko janata, mathura vrndavana, ko janata vraja-nita ko janata, radha-madhava-rati, ko janata soi prita

को जानत, मथुरा वृन्दावन, को जानत व्रजनीत को जानत, राधामाधवरति, को जानत सोइ प्रीत

Who could have understood Krsna’s lilas in Mathura and Vrndavana? How could we have known the sweet vraja-lilas and the love between Radha-Madhava?

jākara caraṇe, prasāde sakala jana, gāi gāoyāi sukha pāota caraṇa-kamale, śaraṇāgata mādho, tava mahimā ura lāgata

jakara carane, prasade sakala jana, gai gaoyai sukha paota carana-kamale, saranagata madho, tava mahima ura lagata

जाकर चरणे, प्रसादे सकल जन, गाइ गाओयाइ सुख पाओत चरणकमले, शरणागत माधो, तव महिमा उर लागत

By the mercy of his lotus feet, all can sing about and attain such divine bliss. The surrendered Madhava dasa is always praying to embrace Rupa’s glories.
