When will my material desires become insignificant? viṣaya chāḓiyā kabe śuddha ha’be mana kabe hāma herabô śrī vṛndāvana (3) When will my mind, as a result of my renouncing material enjoyment, become purified? When will I behold Śrī Vṛndāvana? rūpa-raghunātha-pade hôibe ākuti kabe hāma bujhabô se ĵugala-pīriti (4) When will I develop eagerness for the lotus feet of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī and Śrīla Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī, by whose mercy I will be able to understand the love (prīti) of the Divine Couple? rūpa-raghunātha-pade rahu mora āśa prārthanā karôye sadā narottama dāsa (5) “Let all my hopes and aspirations remain at the lotus feet of Śrī Rūpa and Śrī Raghunātha dāsa.” This is the constant prayer of Narottama dāsa.
