Love of God that has drowned the entire world

(1)

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani
nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani
nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani
nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani

[My Lord Nityananda, the jewel of all virtues, my Lord Nityananda, the jewel of all virtues, has brought the flood of ecstatic love of God that has drowned the entire world.]

(2)

premer vanya loiya nitai aila gauḍa-dese
premer vanya loiya nitai aila gauḍa-dese
ḍubilo bhakata-gana dina hina bhase
premer vanya loiya nitai aila gauḍa-dese
ḍubilo bhakata-gana dina hina bhase

[Bringing this overwhelming deluge of prema when He returned to Bengal from Jagannatha Puri on Lord Caitanya's order, Nitai has inundated the assembly of devotees. The fallen nondevotees did not drown, however, but remained floating on that ecstatic ocean.]

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani
nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani

(3)

dina hina patita pamara
dina hina patita pamara nahi bache
(?) durlabha prema sabakare jace
dina hina patita pamara, pamara nahi bache
brahmar durlabha prema sabakare jace

[Lord Nityananda freely offered this exalted prema, which is difficult for Lord Brahma to attain, even to the fallen and wretched souls who did not desire it.]

(4)

abaddha karuna-sindhu nitai katiya muhan
abaddha karuna-sindhu nitai katiya muhan
ghare ghare prema-amiyara ban
abaddha karuna-sindhu nitai katiya muhan
ghare ghare bule prema-amiyara ban

[The ocean of mercy had formerly been sealed tight, but Nitai cut a channel in its boundary to allow the great flooding waves of nectarean prema to splash from house to house.]

(5)

locan bole mor nitai jeba na bhajilo
janiya suniya sei atma-ghati hoilo

[Locana dasa says, "Whoever has not worshiped my Nitai or taken advantage of this excellent opportunity offered by Him knowingly commits suicide."]

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya avani

premer vanya loiya nitai aila gauḍa-dese
ḍubilo bhakata-gana dina hina bhase
premer vanya loiya nitai aila gauḍa-dese
ḍubilo bhakata-gana dina hina bhase

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya avani

dina hina patita pamara nahi bache
dina hina patita pamara nahi bache
brahmara durlabha prema sabakare jace
dina hina patita pamara
dina hina patita pamara nahi bache
brahmara durlabha prema sabakare jace
dina hina patita pamara nahi bache
brahmara durlabha prema sabakare jace

abaddha karuna-sindhu nitai katiya muhan
ghare ghare bule prema-amiyara ban
abaddha karuna-sindhu nitai katiya muhan
ghare ghare bule prema-amiyara ban

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani
nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya bhasailo avani

locan bole mora nitai jeba na bhajilo
janiya suniya sei atma-ghati hoilo
locan bole mora nitai jeba na bhajilo
janiya suniya sei atma-ghati hoilo

nitai guna-mani amar nitai guna-mani
aniya premera vanya
