Jivera Bhagye Abani Bihare

1

jivera bhagye abani bihare doya
bha-i bhuvana-mohana goracanda nita-i

To bring good fortune to the fallen souls, two persons, namely Lord Gauracandra and Lord Nitai, two persons who charm all the worlds, now enjoy pastimes on this earth.

2

kali- yuge jiba yata chila acetana
hari-namamrta diya karila cetana

In Kali- yuga the people have fallen lifeless and unconscious. By giving them the nectar of Lord Krsna's holy name, these two Lords have brought them back to life.

3

hena avatara bha-i kabhu suni na-i
pataki uddhara kaila ghare ghare ya-i

O my brothers, what kind of avataras are these two Lords? Never have I heard of anyone like Them. They deliver the fallen sinners. They go from house to house searching for them.

4

hena avatara bha-i na-i kona yuge
kona avatare se papira papa mage

O my brothers, never have there been such avataras. Never in any yuga. What avatara begs the sinners for a gift of their sinful reactions?

5

rudhira padila ange kha-iya prahara
yaci prema diya tare karila uddhara

Even when They were struck and blood flowed from Their bodies, these avataras, begging them please to accept the gift of ecstatic spiritual love, delivered the attackers.

6

nama-prema-sudhate bharila tri- bhuvana
ekala bancita bela e dasa locana

These avataras filled the three worlds with the nectar of love for the holy names. Only Locana dasa could not taste that nectar. Only he was cheated of that nectar.
