SRI GAUDIYA GITANJALI : SARANAGATI GITI
sarvasva tomara, charane sapiya,
padechhi tomara ghare
tumi ta’ thakura, tomara kukura,
baliya janaha more [1]
Submitting everything at Your feet, I have come to Your home. You are my
Master, so please consider me Your dog.
badhiya nikate, amare palibe,
rahiba tomara dvare
pratipa-janere, asite na diba,
rakhiba gadera pare [2]
Please keep me – tie me up near Your home and I will stay at Your doorstep. I
will not let anyone who is against you enter – I will keep them on the other
side of the moat.
tava nija-jana, prasada seviya,
uchchhista rakhibe yaha
amara bhojana, parama-anande,
prati-dina habe taha [3]
Whatever remnants Your devotees leave behind after honouring Your
prasad, I will eat that very happily every day.
basiya suiya, tomara charana,
chintiba satata ami
nachite nachite, nikate yaiba,
yakhana dakibe tumi [4]
Sitting or lying down, I will always think about Your feet. As soon as You
call me, I will come to You, dancing.
nijera posana, kabhu na bhaviba,
rahiba bhavera bhare
bhakativinoda, tomara palaka,
baliya varana kare [5]
I will never think about my own welfare – I will live immersed in thoughts
about You. Bhaktivinod embraces You as his guardian.
