Prema Dhama Stotram 2-3

 स्वर्ण-कोति-दर्पणाभ-देह-वर्ण-गौरवं

पद्म-पारिजात-गन्ध-वन्दिताङ्ग-सरभम् ।

कोटि-काम-मूर्च्छिताङ्घ्रि-रूप-रास-रङ्गरं

प्रेम-धाम-देवमेव नौमि गौरसुन्दरम् ॥ २

svara-koti-darpaṇābha-deha-vara-gaurava

padma-pārijāta-gandha-vanditāṅga-sarabham

koi-kāma-mūrcchitāṅghri-rūpa-rāsa-ragara

prema-dhāma-devam eva naumi gaurasundaram

2.

His aura outshines a million golden mirrors with its glow;

While His fragrance makes the Parjijata lotus pray--and Lo!

A hundred million cupids drop their bows and now they swoon

as they pray before Gauranga, Lord of love: the Golden Moon.

प्रेम-नाम-दान-जन्य-पञ्च-तत्त्वकात्मकं

साङ्ग-दिव्य-पार्षदास्त्र-वैभवावतारकम् ।

श्याम-गौर-नाम-गन-नृत्य-मत्त-नगरम्

प्रेम-धाम-देवमेव नौमि गौरसुन्दरम्  ॥ ३

prema-nāma-dāna-janya-pañca-tattvakātmaka

sāṅga-divya-pāradāstra-vaibhavāvatārakam

śyāma-gaura-nāma-gana-ntya-matta-nagaram

prema-dhāma-devam eva naumi gaurasundaram

3

His five-fold Avatar gave Krishna's name in holy prem

With his sanga, saints and weapons, entourage and closest friends.

Every town and village,  dancing, singing, chanting Krishna name.

So I bow before Gauraga, Golden Beauty, Lord of prem.

Gods and mystics, perfect yogis, gathered bhaktas sing the praise

Of the one who saves us sinners from the pains of karma’s blaze--

He’s the sea of mercy-nectar that is Krishna’s holy name:

So I bow before Gauranga, Golden Beauty, Lord of Prem.
