Hari Hari Āra Kabe Pālaṭibe Daśā
Narottama Dāsa Ṭhākura
When will I renounce all material impediments and go to Vrndavana-dhama? O Lord Hari, Lord Hari, when will my life change in this way? I hope I will be able to change my mode of living in this way.
When will I leave all my wealth, followers, children, and wife far behind and with only one desire, go to Vrndavana? When will I leave all material miseries, and live in Vrndavana, eating only whatever food I can obtain by begging?
When will I take long drinks of the Yamuna's water, which is as sweet as nectar? When, with great happiness, will I bathe at Radha-kunda? When will I permanently reside at Syama-kunda?
When will I wander in the twelve forests of Vrndavana, where Lord Krsna enjoyed nectar pastimes, and when, overwhelmed with ecstastic love, will I roll about in the dust of these places? When will I become pure in heart? When will I offer obeisances to all the residents of Vraja, reverently touching their lotus feet?
When will I be able to see the gardens of Vrndavana where the great devotees worshipped the Lord? Narottama dasa hopes to one day attain the lotus feet of the Divine Couple.
