    • ‘dayāl nitāi chaitanya’ ba’le nāch re āmār mana
    • nāch re āmār mana, nāch re āmār mana
    • O my mind, dance! O my mind, dance! O my mind, dance, chanting, “Dayāl Nitāi Chaitanya!”

    • (eman dayāl ta’ nāi he mār kheye prema dey)
    • Oh! No one is so merciful! Nitāi endures being beaten yet gives His aggressors divine love.

    • (ore) aparādha dūre yābe, pābe prema-dhan
    • (aparādhera vichāra to nāi he)
    • (takhan) kṛṣṇa-nāme ruchi habe, ghuchibe bandhana
    • (anurāg to habe he)
    • Then my offences will go away and I will attain the wealth of divine love. (In the Names of Nitāi and Chaitanya, there is no consideration of offences.) Then I will develop taste for Kṛṣṇa’s Name and my bondage will be destroyed. (Then I will have loving attachment.)

    • (takhan) anāyāse saphal habe jīvera jīvana
    • (naile jīvan to michhe he)
    • (kṛṣṇa-rati vinā jīver jīvan to michhe he)
    • (śeṣe) vṛndāvane rādhā-śyāmer pābe daraśana
    • (gaura-kṛpā hale he)
    • Then easily the life of the soul will be successful. (Without attachment to Kṛṣṇa, a soul’s life is simply false.) Then, at the end of life, a soul will see Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Śyām in Vṛndāvan (if Śrī Gaura bestows His mercy).
