‘ratnabāhu’ bali’ prabhu thuila tāṅra nāma
akiñcana prabhura priya kṛṣṇadāsa-nāma

ratnabāhu — the title Ratnabāhu; bali’ — calling him; prabhu — the Lord; thuila — kept; tāṅra — his; nāma — name; akiñcana — unalloyed; prabhura — of the Lord; priya — dear; kṛṣṇadāsa — Kṛṣṇadāsa; nāma — name.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu gave Vijaya dāsa the name Ratnabāhu [“jewel-handed”] because he copied many manuscripts for Him. The twenty-eighth branch was Kṛṣṇadāsa, who was very dear to the Lord. He was known as Akiñcana Kṛṣṇadāsa.

Akiñcana means “one who possesses nothing in this world.”
