Śrī-Caitanya-citrāṣṭakam
Translation
As the moon-like Lord Gaurāṅga appeared in Gauḍadeśa,
the terrible darkness and the dense mass of contamination
within the heart are now completely gone far from
oneself. Having given up his way of life, even a heretic
becomes a devotee of the Supreme Lord, and being fully
satisfied with the nectar of love of God, he also becomes
very affectionate towards all the inhabitants of the three
worlds. Is this not wonderful?
