Sri Gauranga-stava-kalpa-vriksha The Desire Tree of Prayers to Lord Gauranga by Srila Raghunatha dasa Gosvami Text 1 gatim drishtva yasya pramada-gaja-varye 'khila-jana mukham ca sri-candropari dadhati thutkara-nivaham sva-kantya yah svarnacalam adharayac chidhu ca vacas- tarangair gauraggo hridaya udayan mam madayati When everyone sees His graceful motions they revile the graceful mad elephant and when they see His face they spit at the moon. He is splendid as a gold mountain and the waves of His words are nectar. The appearance of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, awakening in my heart, maddens me.

Text 3 rasollasais tiryag-gatibhir abhito varibhir alam drisoh sincal lokan aruna-jala-yantratva-mitayoh muda dantair dashtva madhuram adharam kampa-calitair natan sri-gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati Staggering about in ecstasy, sprinkling everyone with water from the reddish syringes of His eyes, joyfully biting His charming lips with His teeth, and trembling as He dances, may Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu rise in my heart and make me mad with love.

There He would be greatly aggrieved, feeling separation from Krishna. The joints of His transcendental body would slacken, and His arms and legs would become elongated. Rolling on the ground, the Lord would cry out in distress in a faltering voice and weep very sorrowfully. The appearance of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, awakening in my heart, maddens me.* Text 5 anudghatya dvara-trayam uru ca bhitti-trayam aho vilanghyoccaih kalingika-surabhi-madhye nipatitah tanudyat-sankocat kamatha iva krishnoru-virahad virajan gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati How wonderful it is! Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu left His residence without opening the three strongly bolted doors. Then He crossed over three high walls, and later, because of strong feelings of separation from Krishna, He fell down amidst the cows of the Tailanga district and retracted all the limbs of His body like a tortoise. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, who appeared in that way, rises in my heart and maddens me.* Text 6 svakiyasya pranarbuda-sadrisa-goshthasya virahat pralapan unmadat satatam ati kurvan vikala-dhih dadhad bhittau sasvad vadana-vidhu-gharshena rudhiram kshatottham gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati Because of separation from His many friends in Vrindavana, who were like His own life, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu spoke like a madman. His intelligence was transformed. Day and night He rubbed His moonlike face against the walls, and blood flowed from the injuries. May that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu rise in my heart and make me mad with love.* Text 7 kva me kantah krishnas tvaritam iha tam lokaya sakhe tvam eveti dvaradhipam abhivadann unmada iva drutam gaccha drashtum priyam iti tad-uktena dhrita-tad- bhujantar gaurango hridaya udayan mam "My dear friend the doorkeeper, where is Krishna, the Lord of my heart? Kindly show Him to Me quickly." With these words Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu addressed the doorkeeper like a madman. The doorkeeper grasped His hand and replied very hastily, "Come, see Your beloved!" May that Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu rise within my heart and thus make me mad also.* Text 8 samipe niladres cataka-giri-rajasya kalanad aye goshthe govardhana-giri-patim lokitum itah vrajann asmity uktva pramada iva dhavann avadhrito ganaih svair gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati Near Jagannatha Puri was a great sand dune known as Cataka-parvata. Seeing that hill, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, "Oh, I shall go to the land of Vraja to see Govardhana Hill." Then He began running madly to it, and all the Vaishnavas ran after Him. This scene awakens in my heart and maddens me.* Text 9 alam dola-khela-mahasi vara-tan-mandapa-tale svarupena svenapara-nija-ganenapi militah svayam kurvan namnam ati-madhura-ganam murabhidah sa-rango gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati Under a charming pavilion at the swing festival, with Svarupa Damodara and the other devotees He sweetly sang the holy names of Lord Krishna. May Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu rise in my heart and make me mad with love. Text 10 dayam yo govinde garuda iva lakshmi-patir alam puri-deve bhaktim ya iva guru-varye yaduvarah svarupe yah sneham giridhara iva srila-subale vidhatte gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati As Lord Narayana is kind to Garuda, He is kind to Govinda dasa. As Lord Krishna is devoted to His guru, He is devoted to Isvara Puri. As Lord Giridhari loves Subala, He loves Svarupa Damodara. May that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu rise in my heart and make me mad with love. Text 11 maha-sampad-davad api patitam uddhritya kripaya svarupe yah sviye kujanam api mam nyasya muditah uro-gunja-haram priyam api ca govardhana-silam dadau me gaurango hridaya udayan mam madayati Although I am a fallen soul, the lowest of men, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu delivered me from the blazing forest fire of great material opulence by His mercy. He handed me over in great pleasure to Svarupa Damodara, His personal associate. The Lord also gave me the garland of small conchshells that He wore on His chest and a stone from Govardhana Hill, although they were very dear to Him. That same Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu awakens within my heart and makes me mad after Him.* Text 12 iti sri-gaurangodgata-vividha-sad-bhava-kusuma- prabha-bhrajat-padyavali-lalita-sakham sura-tarum muhur yo 'ti-sraddhaushadhi-vara-balat-patha-salilair alam sinced vindet sarasa-guru-tal-lokana-phalam One who, with the water of careful reading mixed with the medicine of strong faith, waters this celestial tree, its charming branches the verses of this poem, and the splendor of its flowers pure love for Lord Gauranga, will reap that tree's heavy fruit: the sight of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

You offered a shark's tooth to the Lord?
