Gītā-mālā

(1)
gorācandera ājñā peye gṛha-vāsī-gaṇa
mṛta suta āṅganete ānila tat-kṣaṇa

Then, by Gauracandra’s order, the household members immediately brought the boy’s body into the courtyard.

(2)
kali-mala-hārī gorā jijñāse takhana
śrīvāsa chāḍiyā śiśu yāo ki kāraṇa

Then merciful Gaura, the destroyer of Kali’s impurities, asked the body: “Why have you left Śrīvāsa so suddenly, O child?”

(3)
mṛta-śiśu-mukhe jīva kare nivedana
loka-śikṣā lāgi prabhu tava ācaraṇa

By the Lord’s mercy, the jīva again manifested through the mouth of the dead child and began to speak prayers meant to instruct everyone.

(4)
tumi to parama-tattva ananta advaya
para-śakti tomāra abhinna tattva haya

“You are indeed the Supreme Truth – unlimited and without a second. Your divine energies are non-different from You.”

(5)
sei parā-śakti tridhā hañā prakāśa
tava icchā-mata kare tomāra vilāsa

“That supreme energy manifests in three forms and conducts Your pastimes according to Your will.”

(6)
cit-śakti-svarūpe nitya-līlā prakāśiyā
tomāre ānanda dena hlādinī hañā

“As cit-śakti, it reveals Your eternal pastimes, and as hlādinī it gives You transcendental bliss.”

(7)
jīva-śakti haya tava cit-kiraṇa-caye
taṭastha-svabhāve jīva-gaṇe prakāśaye

“As jīva-śakti, it manifests the multitude of conscious particles as rays of Your spiritual energy, and thus the jīvas appear with a marginal nature.”

(8)
māyā-śakti hañā kare prapañca-sṛjana
bahirmukha jīve tāhe kare bandhana

“As māyā-śakti, it creates the material universe and binds the souls who turn away from You.”

(9)
bhaktivinoda bale aparādha-phale
bahirmukha hañā āchi prapañca-kabale

“Bhaktivinoda says: due to offenses I have become averse and remain swallowed by the material world.”
