VRNDAVANA MADHURI - S-02-hari-se-bada

Hari Se Baṛā Hari Kā Nāma hari se baṛā hari kā nāma, prabhu se baṛā prabhu kā nāma anta meṅ nikalā ye pariṇāma Hari’s name is greater than Hari Himself (because the Lord’s name can go everywhere). This is the conclusion of all the śastras. sumīro nāma rūpa bina dekhe, kauḍī lage na dāma nāmake bāṅdhe khine āyeṅge, ākhira ek din śyāma Just chant the name even without seeing His form—it doesn’t cost anything. Being tied by His name, eventually Śyāma must come to you one day. draupadīne jab nāma puṅkārā, jhaṭa ā gae ghanaśyāma sāṛī khaincata hārā duhśāsana, sāṛī baḍāi śyāma When Draupadī called out this name, Ghanaśyāma immediately came. When Duhśāsana was pulling off her cloth, Śyāma increased the length of her sārī. jal ḍūbat gajarāj pukāro, āye ādhe nama nāmiko cintā rahati hai, nāma na ho badanāma When Gajendra was drowning, he could only utter half of the name. Nāmī (Kṛṣṇa) is always worrying that His name cannot be ill-reputed; thus, He came. jis sāgarako lāṅdha sake nā, binā pulake rāma kuda gae hanumān usīko, leke hari kā nāma Without the bridge Rāma could not cross over the ocean, but Hanumān, chanting Rāma’s name, jumped over the sea. vo dil vale dub jāyeṅge, jinmeṅ nakiṅ hai nāma vo patthara bhi tereṅge jin par, likhā rāmakā nāma That person, in whose heart the name does not dwell, will sink. That stone upon which Rāma’s name is written will float.
