Awakening
Awakening
This song starts with the early morning cries of the Vrindavan peacocks and then moves on to the predawn temple calls announcing Shri Krishna’s awakening at Shri Nathji’s temple in Nathdvara, Rajasthan. Then follows a poem in the morning Bhairava Raga that advises us…
“O fool! Why are you harrassing your body with difficult practices?
You have left the bliss at hand and tread a rugged path!”
Jaya Jaya Shri Vallabha Prabhu Vitthalesha sathe
Nija jana para karata kripa dharata hath mathe [1]
Dosha sab door karata bhakti bhava hiye dharata
Kaja saba sarata sada gavata guna gathe [2]
Jaya Jaya Shri Vallabha Prabhu Vitthalesha sathe
Kahe ko deha damata sadhana kara murkha jana
Vidyaman ananda taja cheleta kyon apathe [3]
Rasika charana sharana sadaa raheta hai bada bhagi jana
Apuno kara Gokula pati bharata tahi bathe [4]
Jaya Jaya Shri Vallabha Prabhu Vitthalesha sathe
