Ore Vrndavaner Nanda Dulal

1

ore
vṛndāvaner nanda dulāl rākhāl
rājā re rākhāliyār
sūre sūre vāṁśī
bājā re (ore, vṛndāvaner)

O dear one who belongs to Vrndavana! O darling son of Nanda Maharaja! O prince of the cowherd boys, kindly play again on Your flute so we may hear the melodies dear to all Your friends.

2

ore
gopāl tor bihone phūte
nā phūl vṛndāvane abhiśārer
ei madhuvan emni
sājā re

O Gopal, since You've left Vrndavana, the flowers have lost their desire to bloom. Still we decorate the moonlit groves of Madhuvana, hoping You will return for Your amorous rendezvous.

3

śrīdām
sudām bhāi balarām ḍākche
āi kānāi chorāi
dhenu bājāi veṇu āi
re o bhāi āi

Sridama, Sudama, and Your brother Balarama are calling, "O Kanai! Please come back!" While tending the calves and playing on their flutes they entreat, "O brother! Please come home!"

4

mā
yaśodā ḍākche tore (gopāl re, prāṇer
gopāl re) nāni
churā āi nā ore boyche
rādhār prema jamunā hṛdoy
mājā re

Mother Yasoda is crying out, "O Gopal! You are my life and soul! Please come home, O butter thief!" Within the heart of Srimati Radharani, divine love for You flows like the Yamuna River.
