anupama rūpa nīlamaṇi ko rī
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Absolutely ineffable is the beauty of the sapphire-complexioned Shrī Kṛishṇa! Whosoever beholds His bewitchingly beautiful form even once, even by mistake, falls on the ground in a swoon, placing his hand on his heart and exclaiming ‘oh!’ being unable to bear its boundless bliss. So steeped is Shyāmasundara in the very essence of the nectar of beauty that innumerable Kāmadevas can be sacrificed on every part of His body. Another unique thing about His enthralling beauty is that whichever part of His body the eyes see, they experience that part to be lovelier than other parts. Yet another incredible reality is that even after ceaselessly seeing Him from top to toe, the eyes continue to crave every moment for seeing Him again and again. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that it is impossible to contain the ocean of divine bliss in the pitcher of material senses, mind and intellect even by innumerable means.

anupama rūpa nīlamaṇi ko rī
ura dhari kara kari hāya! girata soi, lakhata bāra ika bhūlehuṁ jo rī
prati aṅgani chhavi koṭi anaṅgani, sushamā-sudhā-sāra-rasa borī
jinahiṁna aṅgani nainana nirakhata, tinahiṁna kahaṁ kaha, sarasa bad̤o rī
nakha shikha lakhi sakhi aṁkhiyana hūṁ te, pala pala talaphati dekhana ko rī
kaha ‘kripālu’ gāgara mahaṁ sāgara, āva na yatana karora karo rī
