विमल बाग अनुराग विपुल बेदाग सुमन फल फाबी । सरस स्वाद सीमा सोगुन सुचि सुधा सान सतदाबी ॥ मधुर रसेस सदन दीपक दिल वियद दमक महताबी । युगलानन्य कुसुम रंग सब नाम सुरंग सहाबी ॥१०१॥

Fresh English draft

The stainless garden of abundant, unblemished love is splendid with flowers and fruit. Its relishable taste is the utmost limit, a hundredfold like pure nectar. The Name is the lamp in the dwelling of sweet rasa’s Lord, a moon shining in the heart’s sky. Yugalānanya says: all other names have a flower’s fading colour; this Name bears the beautiful fast colour.

Fresh English draft

Casting off the clash of knowledge and ignorance, become wholly intoxicated in repeating the Name. Even the immortals cannot obstruct one who remembers the fearless Name. Difference, deception, anxiety, and mortality ripen as a fearsome poisoned fruit. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: firmly adopt the Name of Sītā-Rāma.

Fresh English draft

Uttering ‘Sī’ brings good fortune, fair renown, happiness, and the taste of natural samādhi. It removes every mire of stain and makes one single-hearted. ‘Tā’ delivers: it presses for the removal of the mass of darkness, bodily frailty and thirst, and the three guṇas. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: repeating Śrī Svāminī’s Name brings true blessedness.

Root on PDF 55 / printed 49 and its continuing explanation on PDF 56 / printed 50 were checked at 500 dpi. The verse’s explicit syllabic division `सी` / `ता` is preserved.

तीरथ तरहदार गुनागुँ दिल अंदर नहि जोवे । भटकत फिरत मिलत कौड़ी नहि फकत जिन्दगी खोवे ॥ सत शास्त्र उपदेश श्रवन करि जागि-जागि सठ सोवे । युगलानन्यशरण मतलब बिन मूरख फिरि-फिरि रोवे ॥१२२॥

Fresh English draft

Why does one not behold within the heart the holy, graceful, many-virtued One? Wandering and roaming, one finds not even a cowrie and merely loses one’s life. Hearing the instruction of saints and scripture, the fool awakens—and then sleeps again. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: without grasping the meaning, the fool weeps repeatedly.

O tongue—low, unfortunate, sinful—you grow lazy in repeating the Name. Intoxicated, you mingle in the six manifest groups of tastes, which are poison. In the end this great corruption of yours burns amid the fire. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: within the mouth you appear like a serpent.

भजन सार है, भजन सार है, भजन सार है भाई । भजन करत सुख स्वाद सरत सब भजन सजन रसिकाई ॥ भजन भाव वल्लभ विनोद निधि वेद-पुरान बताई । युगलानन्य भजन नामहि को परम प्रमोद प्रदाई ॥१४४॥

Devotion is the essence, devotion is the essence, devotion is the essence, brother. Through devotion every happiness and taste is fulfilled; devotion to the Beloved is the connoisseur’s art. The Vedas and Purāṇas declare devotional feeling the treasury of the Beloved’s delight. Yugalānanya says: devotion to the Name alone bestows supreme joy.

आदि मध्य परिनाम अमल आनन्द अमन्द सुपावें । दश दिशि विश्व विचित्र महा मुद मंगल तिनहें देखावें ॥ जिनको लगन लगी नामहि से सो सुख सहज समावें । युगलानन्यशरण श्री सियवर नामहि से सरसावें ॥१४५॥

Fresh English draft

At beginning, middle, and end they obtain stainless, unceasing bliss. The ten directions and wondrous universe reveal to them great joy and auspiciousness. Those whose longing is fixed upon the Name naturally enter that happiness. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: they become filled with rasa through the Name of Śrī Sītā’s Beloved.

चाहे जौन सुथल से सुमिरन सजे शरन सुखदाई को । सहज सनेह सकाम होन चाहिय सब विधि सब ठाईं को ॥ बीच-बीच बहु खींच-खाँच मतवाले करहिं बड़ाई को । युगलानन्यशरण समुझ्यो निज रीझन सिय रघुराई को ॥१४६॥

Fresh English draft

Wherever one may be, let remembrance adorn the happiness-giving Lord of refuge. With natural love, the printed root says one should be ‘with desire’ in every way and every place. Intoxicated people repeatedly engage in contention for their own prestige. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: I have understood remembrance of the Name as the means of pleasing my Sītā and Raghurāī.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated at 500 dpi on PDF 70 / printed 64. Second-pass image review corrects first-pass `जोन` to visible `जौन`. The root visibly prints `सकाम`, while the accompanying explanation explicitly says `कामना रहित निष्काम`; this unresolved contradiction is retained rather than silently emended. `सुथल` and `खींच-खाँच` remain diplomatic.

जमन किरात गयंद औगुनी गनिका गीध गनाए हैं । प्रेम समेत पुकारि नाम श्रीराम प्रगट ह्वै आए हैं ॥ सुर मुनीस गति अगम जौन अनयास परम पद पाए हैं । युगलानन्यशरण बानी तिन कहुँ कब परा उठाए हैं ॥१४७॥

Fresh English draft

The Yavana, hunter, elephant, sinner, courtesan, and vulture are numbered among the fallen. Calling Śrī Rāma’s Name with love, they found him manifest before them. Effortlessly they attained the supreme station inaccessible even to gods and great sages. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa asks: when did any of them ever raise the Name in the transcendent mode of speech?

है सब चित मन भ्रांत वृथा अनुराग नाम में राखो । सब साधन परिपाक खाक नापाक गुनत रस चाखो ॥ बेपरवाह रहो सीतावर आस गहो गुन भाखो । युगलानन्यशरण पावो अनयास खास अभिलाषो ॥१४८॥

Fresh English draft

All else is the mind and heart’s vain confusion; keep your love in the Name. Regard the ripened fruit of every other discipline as impure ash and taste the Name’s rasa. Remain carefree, take refuge in Sītā’s Lord, and sing his virtues. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: effortlessly attain the one special longing.

Fresh English draft

Someone may speak ten million times about lofty matters of knowledge and yoga and may display all their fruits immediately; regard them nonetheless as disturbances.

Knowing every outward guise to contain pride, hypocrisy, deceit, and defect, abandon it. Casting biased attachment into poison, hold love of the Name within the heart. Hearing of the Name’s supreme greatness, break with all other disciplines as if they were grass. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: O mind, I entreat you again and again.
