Hari bol!

 

I have been thinking about this bhajan, and am trying to understand it a little better, as to what Narottama das is saying? Does He lament as to when He can serve deities of Sri Sri Radha Krsna? And why He is praying to the Gopis?

 

 

Sakhi-vrnde Vijnaptih (Prayer to the Gopis)

 

1) radha-krsna prana mora jugala-kisora

jibane marane gati nahi mora

 

The youthful Divine Couple Sri Sri Radha and Krsna are my life and soul. In life or death I have no other refuge but Them.

 

2) kalindira kule keli-kadambera bana

ratana-bedira upara bosabo ju'jana

 

I shall install the Divine Couple on a jewelled throne in a pleasant forest of kadamba trees on the shore of the Yamuna River.

 

3) syama-gauri-ange dibo candanera gandha

camara dhulabo kabe heir mukha-candra

 

When will I place aromatic sandalwood paste on the limbs of Lord Symasundara and Srimati Gaurangi-devi? When will I fan Them with a camara whisk? When will I see Their moonlike faces?

 

4) gathiya malatir mala dibo dohara gale

adhare tuliya dibo karpura-tambule

 

When will I string garlands of malati flowers and place them on the necks of the Divine Couple? When will I place betel-nuts mixed with camphor in Their lotus mouths?

 

5) lalita bisakha-adi jata sakhi-brnda

ajnaya koribo seba caranarabinda

 

When, following the orders of Lalita, Visakha and the other gopis, will I serve the lotus feet of the Divine Couple?

 

6) sri-krsna-caitanya-prabhur daser anudasa

seba abhilasa kore narottama-dasa

 

Narottama dasa, the servant of the servant of Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu, longs for this service to the Divine Couple.
