জগতে দুর্লভ বড বিশ্বম্ভর-নাম সেই প্রভু চৈতন্য—সবার ধন-প্রাণ ॥ ৭৫ ॥

जगते दुर्लभ बड विश्वम्भर-नाम सेइ प्रभु चैतन्य—सबार धन-प्राण ॥ ७५ ॥

jagate durlabha baḍa viśvambhara-nāma sei prabhu caitanya—sabāra dhana-prāṇa || 75 ||

jagate durlabha bada visvambhara-nama sei prabhu caitanya—sabara dhana-prana (75)

English translation:

(75) The name of Viśvambhara is very rare in this world. That Lord is Śrī Caitanya, the life and soul of all.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

Śrī Caitanyadeva is the all-in-all for the entire world and the life and soul of the fourteen worlds. The name Viśvambhara is very rare in this world. This Viśvambhara is Śrī Caitanya. Those who sing the glories of taking shelter at the lotus feet of Nityānanda, the dearmost servant of Śrī Viśvambhara, are also rare. Such good fortune is not possibile for everyone. That is why the name of Viśvambhara is rare.
