Suno Radhe Ei Rasa

1

śuno rādhe ei rasa,
āmi ye tomāra vaśa tomā vine nāhi
bhāy mone japite tomāra nāma,
dhairaya nā dhare prāṇa tuyā rūpa koriye dheyāne

[Sri Krsna speaks:] Hear Me, O Radhe! I am under your control! I don't think of anyone else with pleasure than You! My heart cannot remain peaceful when I do japa of Your name and I meditate on Your form.

2

śri rādhe śrī rādhe vāṇī,
ye dike yāra mukhe śuni sei dike
dhāy mora man cātaka phukāre jeno,
ghana cāhe variṣaṇa teno heri o cāṅda vadana

My mind runs to any place where I hear someone saying 'Sri Radhe, Sri Radhe!'. Just as a cataka bird stares at the rain cloud, similarly I stare at Your moonlike face.

3

karete muralī thāke,
ghana rādhā boli ḍāke jotokṣaṇa nā
pāy dekhite tomāra nūpura-dhvani,
āpana śravaṇa śuni tabe mora kṣamā hoy cite

My flute is staying in my hand and is loudly crying out ' Radha!' as long as I don't see You. When I hear the sound of Your ankle bells with My own ears, then My heart comes at ease.

4

rādhā-kṛṣṇa duṭi nāma,
tāhe tumi āguyana āmi kori tomāri
bhorasā tabe se saphal hobo,
tuyā pada parasibo dāsa vṛndāvanera e āśā

Of the two names Radha-Krsna, You are the first one, and I long for you! Everything will become perfect if I can touch your feet. Such is the aspiration of Vrndavana Dasa.
