TRANSLATION
1) I am singing news of
great happy tidings. Lord Nityananda Himself has
opened a market-place of the Holy Name in Surabhi-Kunja.
2) The news of its great
results is that He is selling the pure Holy Name in that market-place for the
price of only one's faith.
3) Lord Nityananda,
the proprietor of the market, seeing all the devotees become attracted, is
selling them the Holy Name after bargaining with them.
4) O brother, if you want
to buy the Holy Name, then go with me. We must go to the presence of that great
soul, Nityananda.
5) You will buy the name of
Krsna, I will take my commission and all of our desires will be fulfilled.
6) Lord Nityananda
is greatly merciful. Taking only one's faith, He gives the highest ecstasy.
7) If Nitai
sees only once tears in the eyes while chanting the name "Gaura", then He gives all resources to that person.
8) He gives the pure
teachings of Krsna to everyone and does not care for one's birth, wealth,
knowledge and strength.
9) Now, giving up the
illusory snare of Maya, either remain in household life or in the forest as a sannyasi for no more troubles remain.
10) There is no more fear
of the age of Kali. The merciful Nityananda gives the
Holy Name to even the candalas.
11) Bhaktivinoda
calls out "Except for the lotus feet of Lord Nityananda
there is no other shelter!"
