I released this song on 10.13.16, the auspicious disappearance day of Raghunatha Dasa Gosvami, Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami, and Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami. Lamenting the loss of these and other great Gaudiya Vaisnava devotees, Narottama Dasa Thakura wrote the song, Swa Parsada Bhagavad Viraha Janita Vilapa, Song 1. It is part of his book, Prarthana.

I recorded this song many years ago but never finished it. I finally got the inspiration to do it.

Doug Robinson played the amazing bass part and I did everything else, including mixing and mastering.

je ānilo prema-dhana koruṇā pracur

heno prabhu kothā gelā ācārya-ṭhākur

kāhā mora swarūp rūpa kāhā sanātan

kāhā dāsa raghunātha patita-pāvan

kāhā mora bhaṭṭa-juga kāhā kavirāj

eka-kāle kothā gelā gorā naṭa-rāj

pāṣāṇe kuṭibo māthā anale paśibo

gaurāńga guṇera nidhi kothā gele pābo

se-saba sańgīra sańge je koilo bilās

se-sańga nā pāiyā kānde narottama dās

He, who brought the treasure of divine love and who was filled with compassion and mercy - where has such a personality as Advaita Acarya gone?

Where are my Svarupa Damodara and Rupa Gosvami? Where is Sanatana? Where is Raghunatha Dasa, the savior of the fallen?

Where are my Raghunatha Bhatta and Gopala Bhatta, and where is Krsnadasa Kaviraja? Where did Lord Gauranga, the great dancer, suddenly go?

I will smash my head against the rock and enter into the fire. Where will I find Lord Gauranga, the reservoir of all wonderful qualities?

Being unable to obtain the association of Lord Gauranga accompanied by all of these devotees in whose association He performed His pastimes, Narottama Dasa simply weeps.
