সেইকালে নিজালয়, উঠিয়া অদ্বৈত রায়,
নৃত্য করে আনন্দিত-মনে ।
হরিদাসে লঞা সঙ্গে, হুঙ্কার-কীর্তন-রঙ্গে,
কেনে নাচে, কেহ নাহি জানে ॥ ৯৯ ॥

TRANSLATION

At that time Sri Advaita Acarya Prabhu, in His own house at Santipura, was dancing in a pleasing mood. Taking Haridasa Thakura with Him, He danced and loudly chanted Hare Krsna. But why they were dancing, no one could understand.

PURPORT

It is understood that Advaita Prabhu, at that time, was in His own paternal house at Santipura. Haridasa Thakura frequently used to meet Him. Coincidentally, therefore, he was also there, and upon the birth of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu both of them immediately began to dance. But no one in Santipura could understand why those two saintly persons were dancing.
