Respected All,

There is a certain song on Parama-Purusha that is specially favorable to the ears. The song can be found in the CDs of Sri Ramakrishna songs, and the particular one I heard was sung by Revered Swami Divyabratanandaji, the monk whose beautiful voice is apparently as mesmerizing as that of Revered Swami Sarvaganandaji Maharaj. The original song is in bengali, describing the happiness, our Lord's name brings to us. It was my great fortune to have sung this song to Sri Sri Thakur after his evening vespers at Ramakrishna Mission, Khar,Mumbai during Durga Puja 2008. The transliteration and the translation is as follows:

"Aji Premanande Man re Gaho, Ramakrishna Naam!
Gaho Ramakrishna Nam, Bhajo Ramakrishna Nam,
Naam Sudha Paane raho Matta Abiram!!
Aji Premanande....

Kamarpukur holo Punya Brajadham,
Sakhagane loye khele Lila Abiram,
Jeno Manasa Mukure Bhase Se Chhobi sutham!!
Gaho Ramakrishna Naam, Naam sudha paane raho matta abiram..
Aji Premanande...

 Namo Namo Chandramani Namo Kshudiram,
Kripamayi Ma Janani Laho go Pranam,
Jayrambatir Mati Chandan Saman,
Amar Ma Jananinir Janmabhoomi Mahatirthasthan,
Mayer Charane Sharana Nile Pure Manaskam,
Gaaho Ramakrishna Naam...Nam sudha pane raho Matta abiram...
Aji Premanande...



To the original song in Bengali:

"Today, O Mind, sing the Beautiful name of Sri Ramakrishna with much fervor and love,
Sing the name of Sri Ramakrishna, contemplate on the name of Sri Ramakrishna,
keep yourself totally submerged in drinking the nectar of the beautiful name.
Today, o mind....

The village, Kamarpukur has turned into Braja-bhoomi(Sri Krishna's Vrindavana),
where the eternal lord plays his eternal and timeless Lila with his acquaintances,
O Mind, I can vividly see the beautiful scene on your mirror with joy!!
Sing the name of Sri Ramakrishna, keep yourself submerged in drinking the sweet nectar of his beautiful name.
Today, O mind..

I bow down to Chandramani Devi, I bow down to Sri Kshudiram,
and specially I bow down to my ever so compassionate Beautiful Mother....
The Holy soil of Jayrambati equals sandal itself...
As the soil on which my Mother was born is greater than any pilgrimage in this world...
Take refuge in her lotus feet, O mind...Only then will all the "Vasanas" go away....
Sing the name of Sri Ra
makrishna, keep yourself submerged in drinking the sweet nectar of his beautiful name.
Today, O mind.."


So Let's keep ourselves submerged in singing the beautiful name of Sri Ramakrishna.

Humble pranams.

P.S: The last stanza is the best part of the beautiful song.


--
Jay Mahamai ki Jay!!
Jay Bhagavan Sri Ramakrishnadev ki Jay!!
Jay Swamiji Maharajji ki Jay!!
