Bengali text, Devanagari and Unicode transliteration of verse 1.2.234:
সকল-শক্তি-সঙ্গে, আইলা গৌরচন্দ্র, পাষণ্ডী কিছুই না জানে রে শ্রী চৈতন্য নিত্যানন্দ- চাঙ্দ-প্রভু জান, বৃন্দাবন-দাস রস গান রে ॥ ২৩৪ ॥
सकल-शक्ति-सङ्गे, आइला गौरचन्द्र, पाषण्डी किछुइ ना जाने रे श्री चैतन्य नित्यानन्द- चाङ्द-प्रभु जान, वृन्दावन-दास रस गान रे ॥ २३४ ॥
sakala-śakti-saṅge, āilā gauracandra, pāṣaṇḍī kichui nā jāne re śrī caitanya nityānanda- cāṅda-prabhu jāna, vṛndāvana-dāsa rasa gāna re || 234 ||
sakala-sakti-sange, aila gauracandra, pasandi kichui na jane re sri caitanya nityananda- canda-prabhu jana, vrndavana-dasa rasa gana re (234)
English translation:
(234) Śrī Gauracandra appears along with His energies, but the atheists could not understand a thing. Accepting Śrī Caitanya and Nityānanda Prabhu as my life and soul, I, Vṛndāvana dāsa, sing the glories of Their lotus feet.
Thus ends the English translation of the Gauḍīya-bhāṣya of Śrī Caitanya-bhāgavata, Chapter Two, entitled “The Lord’s Appearance.”
