nāyātaḥ sakhi nirdayo yadi śaṭhas tvaṃ dūti kiṃ dūyase svacchandaṃ bahu-vallabhaḥ sa ramate kiṃ tatra te dūṣaṇam |
paśyādya priya-saṅgamāya dayitasyākṛṣyamāṇaṃ guṇair utkaṇṭhārti-bharād iva sphuṭad idaṃ cetaḥ svayam yāsyati ||

O great Hari! purge from wrong
The soul of him who writes this song;
Purge the souls of those that read
From every fault of thought and deed;
With thy blessed light assuage
The darkness of this evil age!
Jayadev the bard of love,
Servant of the Gods above,
Prays it for himself and you--
Gentle hearts who listen!--too.

Purge the souls of those that read
From every fault of thought and deed;
