TRANSLATION

1) All glories to Srimati Radharani and Giri Vara Dhari! He is the son of Nanda Maharaja. She is the darling of Maharaja Vrisabhanu.
 
2) He wears a peacock feather in His crown and a shining flute is placed on His lips. Her long braids appear brilliant and She ahs a gentle smile on Her face.

3) Wearing a garland of forest flowers, His neck is splendorous. Wearing a shimmering pearl necklace, Her neck is splendorous.

4) His yellow garments enchant the minds of everyone within the universe. Her blue garments display a brilliant effulgence.

5) Jeweled ankle bells resound on Their reddish lotus feet. The mind of Krsna Dasa is illuminated by Their splendorous presence.

Chakrini Devi Dasi

Radha Girivaradhari ~ Chakrini Devi Dasi:

The Vedic Prayer Sita Rama performed by Chakrini Devi Dasi.

In the age known as Treta Yuga, the Supreme Personality of Godhead Sri Krishna appeared as the avatar Rama, the valiant king, setting the standard for heroism, morality, and good government. The story of Rama is told in the epic Ramayana. Here's a summary.

Lord Rama appeared in the dynasty of the Sun god, as the son of King Dasharatha and Queen Kaushalya of Ayodha. He was heir to the throne of greater India and had three younger brothers, Bharata, the son of Rama's stepmother Kaikeyi, and the twins Lakshman and Shatrughna. Under the tutelage of His guru Vishvamitra, Rama studied martial arts and defeated many demons. In a contest of heroes to win the hand of the beautiful Princess Sita, Rama was victorious. He lifted, strung and broke the mighty bow of Lord Shiva, which other contestants could not even move. Princess Sita gladly accepted Rama as her husband and there was a magnificent wedding. All was well in Ayodhya and Rama was about to be crowned king upon his father's retirement, when...

A jealous hunchback maidservant named Mantara convinced her mistress, Queen Kaikeyi, Dasharatha's favorite wife and Rama's stepmother, to make good on a promise the king had given her years earlier. It so had come to pass that Kaikeyi had rescued the injured king from a battlefield and nursed him back to health. At that time, Dasharatha had promised Kaikeyi a boon: anything she asked, he would oblige. Mantara convinced Kaikeyi that now, on the eve of Rama's coronation, was the time to cash in on that promise. Ask the king to exile Rama to the forest for fourteen years and elect her son Bharata to the throne instead.

King Dasharatha was beside himself and heart-broken. He pleaded with Kaikeyi, but the selfish queen would not budge. The king, duty-bound, had to fulfill her demands. Rama accepted the order of His father and moved to the forest, along with His younger brother Lakshman, and wife Sita. The citizens of Ayodhya were dumbfounded. They felt as if the lights of their hearts had been extinguished. Soon thereafter, King Dasharatha passed away from grief. Kaikeyi and Mantara, needless to say, became objects of contentment. Kaikeyi's son Bharata refused to accept the throne and decided to wait out the 14-year exile until his beloved elder brother's return. At Rama's request, however, he governed Ayodhya in His absence, installing Rama's shoes on the throne.

During their stay in the forest, Rama, Sita and Lakshman had many adventures and encountered many demons. Once, a she-demon tried to woo the handsome Rama and assault the pretty Sita. When the attack became physical, Lord Rama quickly intervened and cut off her nose and ears. She was Shurpanakha, sister of the evil demon King Ravana. Hearing of his sister's mutilation, Ravana prepared to seek revenge. He sent a magical golden deer to tempt Sita, who asked Rama to catch it for her. Ravana took advantage of Rama's absence and kidnapped Sita. When the brothers discovered that Sita was missing, they searched for her throughout the forest. Eventually they came upon an old eagle named Jatayu, who informed them that Ravana was the culprit.

Rama and Lakshman journeyed south towards Lanka, Ravana's capital. Along the way, they befriended Sugriva and Hanuman, leaders of the monkey armies. With their help, Rama and Lakshman constructed a bridge across the ocean from India's southernmost tip to the island of Lanka, and attacked Ravana and the demon soldiers. At the end of a ferocious battle, Rama personally killed the ten-headed demon Ravana.

Sita Rama ~ Chakrini Devi Dasi:

the prayer "Gopinath" from Kalyana-kalpataru composed by Vaisnava Acharya Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura, and performed by Chakrini Devi Dasi.

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.
