Gopi Geet Lyrics in Sanskrit

जयति तेऽधिकं जन्मना व्रजः श्रयत इन्दिरा शश्वदत्र हि ।
 दयित दृश्यतां दिक्षु तावका स्त्वयि धृतासवस्त्वां विचिन्वते ॥१॥
शरदुदाशये साधुजातसत्सरसिजोदरश्रीमुषा दृशा ।

सुरतनाथ तेऽशुल्कदासिका वरद निघ्नतो नेह किं वधः ॥२॥

विषजलाप्ययाद्व्यालराक्षसाद्वर्षमारुताद्वैद्युतानलात्।

वृषमयात्मजाद्विश्वतोभया दृषभ ते वयं रक्षिता मुहुः ॥३॥

न खलु गोपिकानन्दनो भवानखिलदेहिनामन्तरात्मदृक् ।

विखनसार्थितो विश्वगुप्तये सख उदेयिवान्सात्वतां कुले ॥४॥

विरचिताभयं वृष्णिधुर्य ते चरणमीयुषां संसृतेर्भयात् ।

करसरोरुहं कान्त कामदं शिरसि धेहि नः श्रीकरग्रहम् ॥५॥

व्रजजनार्तिहन्वीर योषितां निजजनस्मयध्वंसनस्मित ।

भज सखे भवत्किंकरीः स्म नो जलरुहाननं चारु दर्शय ॥६॥

प्रणतदेहिनां पापकर्शनं तृणचरानुगं श्रीनिकेतनम् ।

 फणिफणार्पितं ते पदांबुजं कृणु कुचेषु नः कृन्धि हृच्छयम् ॥७॥

मधुरया गिरा वल्गुवाक्यया बुधमनोज्ञया पुष्करेक्षण ।

विधिकरीरिमा वीर मुह्यतीरधरसीधुनाऽऽप्याययस्व नः ॥८॥

तव कथामृतं तप्तजीवनं कविभिरीडितं कल्मषापहम् ।

श्रवणमङ्गलं श्रीमदाततं भुवि गृणन्ति ते भूरिदा जनाः ॥९॥

Shri krishna leela

Vanaprastha Ashram is beautifully located near the holy river Ganges in Pauri Garhwal. It is a place where occasionally spiritual lectures, Yoga camps, Kathas and other religious functions are being conducted.
From 3.6.2012 to 11.6.2012 a beautiful "Shri Krishna Leela Amrit Katha" was held by the Katha Vyas Param Pujya Shri Swami Govinddev Giriji Maharaj (Acharya Shri Kishorji Vyas), a great Saint, Sanskrit Scholar and Katha Vachak. Shri Govinddev Giriji is the Founder of Maharshi Vedavyas Pratishthan, Pune, Maharashtra, which runs many Vedic Centers and Sanskrit Schools all over India, in order to protect the ancient Vedic Wisdom and keep it alive by teaching it to young students.

On Shri Swami Govinddevji's special request, H.H. Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati, President, Omkarananda Ashram, Kumari Somashekhari, General Secretary, Omkarananda Ashram, and Shri Sukumar, Member, joined the Krishna Leela Amrit Katha, in the afternoon of 9th June 2012.
The Delegates from Omkarananda Ashram arrived at 4:45 pm in the afternoon, when the atmosphere in and outside of Vanaprastha Ashram was vibrating with the beautiful sound of Bhajans and Kirtan and the holy words of the famous Katha Vachak Shri Swami Govinddev Giri.

One of the organizing members of the function brought Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda, Kumari Somashekhari and Shri Sukumar near the heavenly decorated dais, where Mr. Ladda, a prominent Member of the Vedic Trust, Maharshi Vedavyas Pratishthan, gave them a nice reception. It was a very warm traditional welcome, with Arati and applying of Tilak. Then Swami Vishveshwarananda and Kumari Somashekhari were brought to the dais, where they together garlanded Shri Swami Govinddev Giri, sitting on the Vyas Peeth. Swamiji in his turn showered his blessings by garlanding all the three Delegates of Omkarananda Ashram.
The entire atmosphere in the hall, which was packed full with audience from several parts of India, was sparkling with divine vibrations. Swamiji, in full command, brought the audience back to the life of the great Lord Krishna and His teachings. From time to time the musicians accompanied Swamiji with wonderful tunes and rhythm, which made the audience singing and clapping along in the same tune.
After some time Shri Swami Govinddev Giriji himself introduced Omkarananda Ashram and its Delegates to the audience. He was full of praise for Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati, who had established so many Schools, Colleges and religious Institutions in the Himalayas. Shri Govinddev Giriji even went to that extent to say, that the Disciples of Swami Omkarananda are ideal examples of true Indians. He also compared the dedication of Swami Omkarananda's Disciples with others. Smilingly, in a humorous way, he informed the audience, that once he wanted to send a particular person from Kolkata, West Bengal, to Deoprayag, Uttarakhand, Himalayas, for one month for some work. But this person was not so happy and had all kinds of excuses, since he did not want to leave his home even for a few weeks. 
Not so, emphasized Govinddevji, with the Disciples of Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati, who more than 28 years back, under the instructions of their Gurudev, took on a short notice the next plane from Europe to India, and started serving the people in the Himalayas in an exceptionally wonderful manner and never returned back to Europe, but became even Indian Citizens.
Swami Govinddev Giri also emphasized that Omkarananda Ashram is a very rare Ashram and that he will request anybody to go and see that place.
Later on he requested Swami Vishveshwarananda to say a few words. 
Swami Vishveshwaranandaji, in his fiery, divine speech, spoke to the audience, which was translated into Hindi by Kumari Somashekhari. He praised the audience and told them that they are lucky, that they have come to this place to hear the holy words of Swami Govinddev Giriji Maharaj. He also said, that it is a great blessing for them, that they have been born in a country, having a culture, which is second to none. He further told that time is passing quickly and they should use the opportunity for the chance they have been given to be close to a real God-man in form of Swami Govinddev Giriji Maharaj.  
Swami Vishveshwaranandaji, in his lively, inspiring address, said, that it is of paramount importance for spiritual progress and happiness to keep company with saintly, noble people. He cited a proverb which says: "Tell me, who are your companions, and I tell you, who you are!"
Concluding his speech Swami Vishveshwaranandaji expressed his Thanks, specially to his Gurudev, when he told, that he is grateful to his Guru Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati, who made it possible to meet such great personalities like Swami Govinddev Giriji Maharaj.
