    THE LIFE AND SONGS OF
    SRILA NAROTTAM THAKUR

    Srila Guru Maharaj mentioned many songs of Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur and Srila Narottam Thakur. I see here that you can sing very nicely, and you have much regard for that. I am happy to hear the songs of Bhakti Vinod Thakur and Narottam Thakur. Sometimes spelling mistakes happen, but Krishna is very merciful: He is not thinking of that, He is only taking the devotion from His devotee.

    Do you know this song?

    hari hari!
    bada sela marame rahila
    paiya durlabha tanu sri-krsna-bhajana vinu
    janma mora viphala ha-ila

    And another song is,

    hari hari!
    viphale janama gonainu

    Do you know that song? I want to sing that song with you. This song was very dear to Guru Maharaj, and Prabhupad Saraswati Thakur also liked this song very much. It is Narottam Thakur’s song.

    হরি হরি!
    বিফলে জনম গোঙাইনু ।
    মনুষ্যজনম পাইয়া রাধাকৃষ্ণ না ভজিয়া
    জানিয়া শুনিয়া বিষ খাইনু ॥১॥

    hari hari!
    viphale janama gonainu
    manusya-janama paiya radha-krsna na
