This heartfelt composition by Srila Narottama Dāsa Ṭhākura, one of the foremost saints in the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition, is a beautiful cascade of divine names, praises, and devotional aspirations. With folded hands, the poet offers obeisances to Lord Hari, Lord Krishna, and His many transcendental forms — Yadava, Madhava, Kesava, Govinda, Giridhari, and more.
In the spirit of bhakti-yoga, Narottama Dāsa glorifies the entire paramparā — from Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Nityānanda Prabhu, and Advaita Ācārya to the revered Six Goswamis of Vrindavan: Rūpa, Sanātana, Raghunātha Bhaṭṭa, Jīva, Gopāla Bhaṭṭa, and Raghunātha Dāsa Goswami. Their lives, teachings, and presence in Vraja illuminated the eternal pastimes of Radha and Krishna, reviving the holy land as a center of divine love.
With profound humility, Narottama declares his eternal servitude to these Goswamis and Vaishnavas, seeking only the dust of their feet as his sustenance and aspiring to remain in their company, life after life.
