śrīvāsera prati, caitanya-prasāda
dekhiyā sakala jana
jaya śrī-caitanya, jaya nityānanda
bali’ nāce ghana ghana
Seeing the special mercy that Śrī Caitanya had bestowed upon Śrīvāsa, all those present began repeatedly dancing and loudly crying out, “Glories to Śrī Caitanya! Glories to Nityānanda!”

śrīvāsa-mandire, ki bhāva uṭhila
tāhā ki varṇana haya
bhāva-yuddha sane, ānanda-krandana
uṭhe kṛṣṇa-prema-maya
What ecstatic mood arose within Śrīvāsa’s house at that time cannot be described. Waves of joyful weeping arose amidst a great battle of bhāva, everything saturated with kṛṣṇa-prema.

cāri bhāi paḍi’, prabhura caraṇe
preme gadagada svare
kāndiyā kāndiyā, kākuti kariyā
gaḍi’ yāya prema-bhare
The four brothers then fell at the Lord’s feet. Their voices choked with love, they wept again and again, humbly offering prayers while rolling upon the ground, overwhelmed by the weight of divine love.

ohe prāṇeśvara, e hena vipada
prati-dina yena haya
yāhāte tomāra, caraṇa-yugale
āsakti bāḍhite raya
“O Lord of our lives! May such calamities come every day if they serve only to deepen our attachment to Your divine lotus feet.”

vipada-sampade, sei dina bhāla
ye dina tomāre smari
tomāra smaraṇa, rahita ye dina
se dina vipada hari
“That day alone is truly auspicious, even amid calamity, if it brings remembrance of You. But the day on which remembrance of You is absent, O Lord, that day is the real disaster.”

śrīvāsa-goṣṭhira, caraṇe paḍiyā
bhaktivinoda bhaṇe
tomādera gorā, kṛpā bitariyā
dekhāo durgata jane
Falling at the feet of Śrīvāsa and all his family members, Bhaktivinoda says: “May your Gaura distribute His mercy and reveal Himself to this fallen soul.”
