The Mercy of Prasadam

Prabhupada: Very good, go on.

(1)

bhaja bhakata-vatsala sri-gaurahari
sri-gaurahari sohi gostha-bihari
nanda-jasomati-citta-hari

[Just worship Sri Gaurahari, who is always affectionate toward His devotees. He is the same Supreme Godhead, Krsna, who sported in the cowherd pastures of Vraja and stole the hearts of Nanda and Yasoda.]

(2)

bela ho'lo damodara aisa ekhano
bhoga-mandire bosi' koraho bhojana

[Mother Yasoda calls to Krsna, "My dear Damodara, it is very late. Please come right now, sit down in the dining hall, and take Your lunch."]

(3)

nandera nidese baise giri-bara-dhari
baladeva-saha sakha baise sari sari

[On the direction of Nanda Maharaja, Krsna, the holder of Govardhana Hill, sits down, and then all the cowherd boys, along with Krsna's elder brother, Sri Baladeva, sit down in rows to take their lunch.]

(4)

sukta-sakadi bhaji nalita kusmanḍa
dali dalna dugdha-tumbi dadhi moca-khanḍa

[They are then served a feast of sukta and various kinds of green leafy vegetables, then nice fried things, and a salad made of the green leaves of the jute plant. They are also served pumpkin, baskets of fruit, small square cakes made of lentils and cooked-down milk, then thick yogurt, squash cooked in milk, and vegetable preparations made from the flower of the banana tree.]

(5)

luci cini sarpuri laḍḍu rasabali
bhojana korena krsna ho'ye kutūhali

[There are puris made with white flour and sugar; puris filled with cream; laḍḍus; and dahl patties boiled in sugared rice. Krsna eagerly eats all of the food.]

(6)

radhikara pakka anna vividha byanjana
parama anande krsna korena bhojana

[In great ecstasy and joy Krsna eats the rice, curried vegetables, sweets, and pastries cooked by Srimati Radharani.]
