namaḥ oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya gaura-preṣṭhāya bhūtale  
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-vana iti nāmine

​

“I offer praṇāmas unto oṁ viṣṇupāda Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktivedānta Vana Mahārāja, who is very dear to Śrī Gaurāṅga Mahāprabhu, having taken shelter at His lotus  feet.”

​

vande 'ham bhakti-cakoraṁ gaurāṅga-nija-preṣṭhitaṁ 
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāmī vanaṁ namas tubhyaṁ

​

“I offer my prayers and obeisances unto Śrīla Bhaktivedānta Vana Mahārāja who is like a cakora bird, always drinking the moon-rays of pure devotion and who is  among Śrī Gaurāṅga Mahāprabhu's own dear ones.”

​

śrī rādhā eka-niṣṭhitaṁ rasāyana-kathāmṛtaṁ 
saṅkīrtanaṁ ānanda-dhāma gosvāmīnaṁ vanam namaḥ

​

“He bestows upon us the life-giving nectar of hari-kathā which culminates in exclusive devotion to Śrīmatī Rādhikā and the blissful shelter (ānanda-dhāma) of nāma-saṅkīrtana. I offer obeisances unto Śrīla Vana Mahārāja who has perfectly mastered his senses (gosvāmī).”
