TRANSLATION

1) The sun of the holy name has appeared in the universe to destroy all forms of ignorance. Casting aside all worldly things, the saintly become devoted to Him alone.

2) The sun of the holy name is the remover of the darkness of ignorance. O Harinam, who actually knows Your greatness? What sort of learned man is capable of singing all Your glories?

3) O holy name, from the very moment You first appear on the horizon of the heart, the darkness of this material world is almost totally devoured.

4) Quickly destroying all remaining darkness, You bestow divine wisdom upon our spiritually blinded eyes.

5) That divine wisdom gives rise within the heart to pure devotion and an understanding of the transcendental characteristics of Lord Hari.

6) This wonderful pastime of Yours is eternal and Thakura Bhaktivinoda has understood its essence.
