Here is an ecstatic song written by Bhaktivinoda Thakura, our great-grand spiritual master. He wrote hundreds of songs describing the glories of Krishna and the chanting of the Hare Krishna maha-mantra.
(1)
'radha-krsna' bol bol bolo re sobai
(ei) siksa diya, sab nadiya
phirche nece' gaura-nitai
(miche) mayar bose, jaccho bhese',
khaccho habudubu, bhai
Chant, chant "Radha-Krsna!" Everyone chant! When Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityananda came dancing through Nadia, They gave these teachings: Chant, chant "Radha-Krsna!" Everyone chant! You are caught up in a whirlpool of senseless action and are sinking lower and lower. Chant, chant "Radha-Krsna!" Everyone chant!
(2)
(jiv) krsna-das, e biswas,
korle to' ar duhkho nai
(krsna) bolbe jabe, pulak ha'be
jhorbe ankhi, boli tai
If you just understand that the spirit soul is the eternal servant of Krsna, you will never have any more sorrows. Chant Hare Krsna and your eyes will fill with tears and your body will feel transcendental shivering. Chant, chant "Radha-Krsna!" Everyone chant!
(3)
('radha) krsna' bolo, sańge calo,
ei-matra bhikha cai
(jay) sakal' bipod bhaktivinod
bole, jakhon o-nam gai
Simply chant "Radha-Krsna" and join with us. Those are the only alms we beg. Chant, chant "Radha-Krsna!" Everyone chant! "All dangers will be gone when that Name is chanted," says Bhaktivinoda Thakura. Chant, chant "Radha-Krsna!" Everyone chant!
