Saranagati, Song 2

By Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur

 

bhuliya tomare,samsare asiya,
peye nana-vidha vyatha
tomara charane,asiyachhi ami,
baliba duhkhera katha [1]

(1) Forgetting You and coming to the material world, I have undergone all sorts of suffering. Now I have come before Your feet and will express my tale of distress.

janani-jathare,chhilama yakhana,
visama bandhana-pase
eka-bara prabhu!dekha diya more,
vanchile e dina dase [2]

(2) While I was bound in the terrible confines of my mother's womb, You once revealed Yourself to me, O Lord! Yet since then You have deprived this poor servant.

takhana bhavinu,janama paiya,
kariba bhajana tava
janama ha-ila,padi' maya-jale,
na ha-ila jnana-lava [3]

(3) At that moment I thought I would engage in Your service after taking birth. Yet when I was born, I fell into maya's trap, and not a trace of such consciousness remained.

adarera chhele,svajanera kole,
hasiya katanu kala
janaka-janani-snehete bhuliya,
samsara lagila bhala [4]

(4) As a son of adoring parents, I spent my time in their laps, smiling and laughing. Because of my mother and father's af- fection, I forgot You and took pleasure in family life (material existence).

krame dina dina,balaka ha-iya,
khelinu balaka saha
ara kichhu-dine,jnana upajila,
patha padi ahar-ahah [5]

(5) Day by day I grew into a young boy and played with other young boys. Later on my intellect developed, and I studied my lessons day in and day out.

vidyara gaurave,bhrami' dese dese,
dhana uparjana kari'
svajana-palana,kari eka-mane,
bhulinu tomare hari! [6]

(6) Then on the strength of my learning, I travelled from place to place, earned money, and maintained my family with undivided attention. I forgot You, O Lord!

varddhakye ekhana,bhakati-vinoda,
kadiya katara ati
na bhajiya tore,dina vrtha-gela,
ekhana ki ha'be gati? [7]

(7) Now aged,Bhakti Vinod cries in great distress, "Notserving You, I have passed my days in vain. What will be my fate now?"

(Ohe) vaisnava thakura, dayara sagara
Ei-bara karuna kara vaisnava gosani
Thakura vaisnava pada, avanira susampada
Thakura vaisnava-gana! kari ei nivedana
Krpa kara vaisnava thakura
Ki-rupe paiba seva muni durachara
Dhana mora nityananda
Mana tumi tirthe sada rata

The Calamity Within
'You will face so much austerity in your spiritual life, but please do not leave Krishna consciousness. You want to get the Supreme Personality but how much patience do you have? How much quality do you have? How much of your ego can you leave?'

 

      

You can stay anywhere, in a forest or a house—it is necessary to chant, only to chant
constantly. When you stop chanting, illusory environment can come.
