SRI GAUDIYA GITANJALI : SRI VAISHNAV VANDANA

thakura vaisnava-gana! kari ei nivedana,
mo bada adhama durachara
daruna-samsara-nidhi, tahe dubaila vidhi,
kese dhari’ more kara para [1]

O worshippable Vaishnavs! I am submitting this prayer to you. I am very lowly and wretched. Providence has dunked me into this vast ocean of material existence – please grab me by the hair and pull me out to the shore!

vidhi bada balavan, na sune dharama jnana,
sadai karama-pase bandhe
na dekhi tarana lesa, yata dekhi saba klesa,
anatha katare tei kande [2]

Providence is very strong – I refuse to listen to what is right and what is wrong, always struggling in the noose of material life. Not seeing any means of deliverance anywhere – wherever I look, there is only misery – this orphan is crying in distress.

kama, krodha, lobha, moha, mada, abhimana saha,
apana apana sthane tane
aichhana amara mana, phire yena andha-jana,
supatha vipatha nahi jane [3]

Lust, anger, greed, illusion, madness and ego tear me apart, pulling me each in a different direction; so, my mind wanders like a blind man who cannot tell the right way from the wrong way.

na lainu sat mata, asate majila chitta,
tuya paye na karinu asa
narottama dase kaya, dekhi suni lage bhaya,
taraiya laha nija pasa [4]

I did not learn anything of eternal value. My heart immersed in falsehood, I did not wish to come to your feet. Narottam Das says, ‘I am scared to see and hear all this. Please rescue me! Take me with you!’
