ईशानदेवचरणाभरणेन नीवी-
दामोदरस्थिरयशः स्तवकोद्भवेन ।
लीलाशुकेन रचितं तव कृष्णदेव
कर्णामृतं वहतु कल्पशतान्तरेऽपि ॥
īśāna-deva-caraṇābharaṇena nīvī-

līlāśukena racitaṁ tava kṛṣṇa-deva

(Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta: 110)
“O Kṛṣṇadeva, may [this] nectar for your ears [i.e., this text Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta] composed by Līlāśuka [i.e., Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura], whose ornament is the feet of Īśānadeva [i.e., you who are the playful vital air of Rādhā], and whose origin is the bouquet of the everlasting glory of Nīvi-dāmodara [i.e., you who are bound around the belly with the cord of Rādhā’s waistband], flow for hundreds kalpas.”
