GOPINATH
by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura 

1) O Gopinatha, Lord of the gopis, please hear my request. I am a wicked 
materialist, always addicted to worldly desires, and no good qualities do I 
possess.

2) 0 Gopinatha, You are my only hope, and therefore I have taken shelter at 
Your lotus feet. I am now Your eternal servant.

3) 0 Gopinatha, how will You purify me? I do not know what devotion is, and my 
materialistic mind is absorbed in fruitive work. I have fallen into this dark 
and perilous worldly existence.

4) 0 Gopinatha, everything here is Your illusory energy. I have no strength or 
transcendental knowledge, and this body of mine is not independent and free 
from the control of material nature.

5) 0 Gopinatha, this sinner, who is weeping and weeping, begs for an eternal 
place at Your divine feet. Please give him Your mercy.

6) 0 Gopinatha, You are able to do anything, and therefore You have the power 
to deliver all sinners. Who is there that is more of a sinner than myself?

7) 0 Gopinatha, You are the ocean of mercy. Having come into this phenomenal 
world, You expand Your divine pastimes for the sake of the fallen souls.

8) 0 Gopinatha, I am so sinful that although all the demons attained Your lotus 
feet, Bhaktivinoda has remained in worldly existence.

TRANSLATION 
1) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, whose face is extremely delightful, in whose beautiful ears hang jeweled earrings, and whose entire body is anointed with fragrant candana.

2) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, whose eyes are more beautiful than the fully bloomed lotus, whose head is beautifully adorned with an arrangement of peacock feathers, and who enchants millions of Cupids.

3) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, from whose beautiful nose hangs an elephant-pearl, whose teeth are immensely effulgent, whose bodily complexion is more beautiful and lustrous than a fresh rain cloud.

4) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, whose lotus hands hold the flute, whose lingering gait defeats even that of an impassioned elephant, and whose dark limbs are beautified by a yellow shawl.

5) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, whose threefold-bending posture is exquisitely elegant, the effulgence of whose toe-nails put to shame even the moon, and who wears invaluable jewels and ornaments.

6) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, whose body exudes an especially beautiful fragrance, and whose broad chest is adorned with the kaustubha jewel and the mark of srivatsa.

7) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, the expert lover of Vrindavana who performs immaculate pastimes and who is attired in clothes which are suitable for those pastimes, and who pulverized the pride of Indra.

8) I offer pranama to Nandanandana, who as the lover of the Vraja gopis perpetually delights them and who enchants the minds of all living entities.

9) Whoever regularly recites this (Sri Nanda-nandanastakam) will easily cross the seemingly insurmountable ocean of material existence and attain eternal residence at the lotus feet of Krishna.
