LYRICS:

(1)
udita sūrya prāci rāje,

dwija-maṇi gorā aise jāge,

bhagata-vṛnda sańge lie,

nagara-śobhā sāje

(2)
'tāthaī tāthaī bāje mṛdańga,

ghana ghana ghana sańga sańga,

prema se dama ke svarṇa ańga,

caraṇa nūpura bāje

(3)
mukunda mādhava yādava hari,
boliye boliye prema se bhari,
vṛddhā gayi yeh niśā gelā

divasa śarīra-sāje

(4)
aise durlabha mānava-deha,
pākara kariye jatana deha,
yadi nā bhajiyā yaśodā-lāla,
paḍiye carama lāje

(5)
udita sūrya hove asta,
divasa vyārtha kare byasta,
taba bhī kāhe alasa hoke,
bhajana hṛdoya-rāje

(6)
jīvana anitya jāniye sār,
dharo-vividha vipada-bhār,
nāma āśraya jatana kariye,
sthira rahiye kāje

(7)
jīva kalyāna-sādhana-kām,
jaga meń āge madhura nām,
ajñāna-timira-sūrya-rūpe,
hṛd-gagana birāje

(8)
kṛṣṇa-nāma-sudhā kariye pān,
tṛpta bhakativinoda-prāṇ,
nāma binā kachu nāhiń aur,
sakala-bhuvana-mājhe

TRANSLATION

1) When the rising sun appeared in the East, the jewel of the twice-born, Lord Gaurasundara, awakened, and, taking His devotees with Him, He went all over the countryside towns and villages

2) The mṛdaṇgas (khol) resounded "tāthaī, tāthaī," and the jhājas [large metal karatālas that look like small cymbals] in that kīrtana played in time. Lord Gaurāńga's golden form slightly trembled in ecstatic love of Godhead, and His footbells jingled.

3) All the devotees chanted the names Mukunda, Mādhava, Yadava and Hari, their mouths being filled with the vibrations. They would announce to the still sleeping people, "You spend your nights uselessly sleeping and your days decorating your bodies!

4) You have achieved such a rare human body, but you do not care for this gift. You remain not serving the darling of Yaśodā and slowly fall through your last moments to death.

5) With every rising and setting of the sun, a day passes and is lost. Then, why do you remain idle and not serve the Lord of the heart?

6) This temporary life is full of various miseries. Take shelter of the holy name as your only business.

7) To penetrate the darkness of ignorance and bless everyone's heart, the holy name has risen like the shining sun.

8) Drink the pure nectar of the holy name. There is nothing but the name to be had in the fourteen worlds. It has filled the soul of Srī Bhaktivinoda Thākura.
