You are bathed by streams of splendor that rebuke gold, lightning, and the campaka flower. Your splendid garments are friend to the bandhuka flower. O Vrnda, I bow to your lotus feet.

Vrsabhanu's daughter Radha made you guardian of Krishna's opulent and auspicious abode of Vrndavana, the crest jewel of all Vaikuntha planets. O Vrnda, I bow to your lotus feet.

By Your order the groves where Madhava enjoys pastimes are splendidly decorated with blossoming flowers, bumble-bees, deer, honey, and other things. O Vrnda, I bow to your lotus feet.

Because you became Their messenger the eager and youthful divine couple enjoyed the perfection of transcendental pastimes in the forest. O Vrnda, I bow to your lotus feet.

By your mercy people attain residence in Vrndavana, the desire to serve your masters' lotus feet, and the desire to assist in the rasa dance. O Vrnda, I bow to your lotus feet.

They who are learned in the Satvata-tantra glorify you. You are Krishna's pastime-potency. The Tulasi plant is your form in the world of men. O Vrnda, I bow to your lotus feet.

(8)
bhaktya vihina aparadha-laksaih
ksiptas ca kamadi-taranga-madhye
krpamayi tvam saranam prapanna
vrnde namas te caranaravindam

O merciful one, I have no devotion and have committed millions of offenses. I am drowning in the turbulent ocean of lust. Thus I take shelter of you. O Vrinda, I bow to your lotus feet.

(9)
vrndastakam yah srnuyat pathed va
vrndavanadhisa-padabja-bhrngah
sa prapya vrndavana-nitya-vasam
tat-prema-sevam labhate krtarthah

A person who is like a bumblebee at the lotus feet of Vrindavana's king and queen, and who reads or hears this Vrindastaka, will eternally reside in Vrindavana and attain loving service to the divine couple.

Jahnava devi learned these slokas at a period in Vrndavana when she had smallpox. Everyday she would learn one verse and after nine days she mastered it.

She was cured and blessed by Vrnda devi. It is always amazing to see how her pronunciation is so accurate and natural. No wonder why Gurudeva loves her so much!

This video is the sweetest. I know Jahnava dasi, and it is so amazing and inspiring to see how dedicated she is. To be able to sing so sweetly at only 6! wow.
