- Verse 1
anya abhilāṣa chāḍi, jñāna karma parihari, kāya mane koribo bhajana sādhu saṅga kṛṣṇa sevā, nā pūjibo anya devā ei bhakti parama kāraṇa
anya abhilasa chadi, jnana karma parihari, kaya mane koribo bhajana sadhu sanga krsna seva, na pujibo anya deva ei bhakti parama karana
अन्य अभिलाष छाडि, ज्ञान कर्म परिहरि, काय मने कोरिबो भजन साधु सङ्ग कृष्ण सेवा, ना पूजिबो अन्य देवा एइ भक्ति परम कारण
Srila Rupa Gosvami Prabhupada has said (Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu 1.1.11) "Uttama bhakti, or unalloyed devotion unto the Supreme Lord, Sri Krsna, involves the rendering of devotional service in a way that is favourable to the Lord. This devotional service should be free from any extraneous motive and devoid of fruitive karma, impersonal jnana and all other selfish desires."*
- Verse 2
mahājanera yei patha, tāte hobo anurata, pūrvāpara koriyā vicāra sādhana smaraṇa līlā, ihāte nā koro helā kāya mane koriyā susāra
mahajanera yei patha, tate hobo anurata, purvapara koriya vicara sadhana smarana lila, ihate na koro hela kaya mane koriya susara
महाजनेर येइ पथ, ताते होबो अनुरत, पूर्वापर कोरिया विचार साधन स्मरण लीला, इहाते ना कोरो हेला काय मने कोरिया सुसार
Rejecting all other desires, and abandoning philosophical speculation and fruitive work, in the company of the devotees I will worship and serve Lord Krsna with my body and mind. I will not worship the demigods and demigoddesses. Devotional service is the reason for my life.
- Verse 3
asat saṅgati sadā, tyāga koro anya gītā, karmī jñānī parihari dūre kevala bhakata saṅga, prema bhakti rasa raṅga, līlā kathā vraja rasa pure
asat sangati sada, tyaga koro anya gita, karmi jnani parihari dure kevala bhakata sanga, prema bhakti rasa ranga, lila katha vraja rasa pure
असत सङ्गति सदा, त्याग कोरो अन्य गीता, कर्मी ज्ञानी परिहरि दूरे केवल भकत सङ्ग, प्रेम भक्ति रस रङ्ग, लीला कथा व्रज रस पुरे
Devotedly follow the path of the great devotees in the past. Properly using your body and mind, don't neglect either the regulative devotional practices or the remembrance of the Lord's pastimes.
- Verse 4
yogī nyāsī karmī jñānī, anya deva pūjaka dhyānī, iha loka dūre parihari dharma karma duḥka śoka, yebā thāke anya yoga, chāḍi bhajo girivaradhārī
yogi nyasi karmi jnani, anya deva pujaka dhyani, iha loka dure parihari dharma karma duhka soka, yeba thake anya yoga, chadi bhajo girivaradhari
योगी न्यासी कर्मी ज्ञानी, अन्य देव पूजक ध्यानी, इह लोक दूरे परिहरि धर्म कर्म दुःक शोक, येबा थाके अन्य योग, छाडि भजो गिरिवरधारी
Always reject the company of the impious. Give up attraction to non-devotional songs. Leave the karmis and jnanis far away. Only associate with the devotees. Take pleasure in hearing the nectar descriptions of pure love for Krsna. Become flooded by the nectar of the narrations of the Lord's pastimes in Vraja.
- Verse 5
tīrtha yātrā pariśrama, kevala manera bhrama, sarva siddhi govinda caraṇa sudṛḍha viśvāsa kori, mada mātsarya parihari, sadā koro ananya bhajana
tirtha yatra parisrama, kevala manera bhrama, sarva siddhi govinda carana sudrdha visvasa kori, mada matsarya parihari, sada koro ananya bhajana
तीर्थ यात्रा परिश्रम, केवल मनेर भ्रम, सर्व सिद्धि गोविन्द चरण सुदृढ विश्वास कोरि, मद मात्सर्य परिहरि, सदा कोरो अनन्य भजन
Putting the yogis, svamis, karmis, jnanis, demigod-worshippers, and meditators far away, and rejecting the torments that are fruitive work, ordinary religion, and the other yogas, worship Lord Giridhari.
- Verse 6
kṛṣṇa bhakta aṅga heri, kṛṣṇa bhakta saṅga kori śraddhānvita śravaṇa kīrtana arcana smaraṇa dhyāna, nava bhakti mahā-jñāna ei bhakti parama kāraṇa
krsna bhakta anga heri, krsna bhakta sanga kori sraddhanvita sravana kirtana arcana smarana dhyana, nava bhakti maha-jnana ei bhakti parama karana
कृष्ण भक्त अङ्ग हेरि, कृष्ण भक्त सङ्ग कोरि श्रद्धान्वित श्रवण कीर्तन अर्चन स्मरण ध्यान, नव भक्ति महाज्ञान एइ भक्ति परम कारण
The struggle to travel to various holy pilgrimage places is simply the mind's mistake, because to make spiritual advancement all one actually needs is the lotus feet of Lord Govinda. Abandoning pride and envy, and with firm faith in your heart, always worship Lord Govinda without deviation.
- Verse 7
hṛṣīke govinda sevā, nā pūjibo devī devā, ei to ananya bhakti kathā āra yoto upālambha, viśeṣa sakali dambha, dekhite lāgaye boḍo vyathā
hrsike govinda seva, na pujibo devi deva, ei to ananya bhakti katha ara yoto upalambha, visesa sakali dambha, dekhite lagaye bodo vyatha
हृषीके गोविन्द सेवा, ना पूजिबो देवी देवा, एइ तो अनन्य भक्ति कथा आर योतो उपालम्भ, विशेष सकलि दम्भ, देखिते लागये बोडो व्यथा
See the devotees of Lord Krsna, associate with the devotees of Lord Krsna. Faithfully engage in the nine-fold process of devotional service, which includes hearing about the Lord, chanting His glories, worshipping Him, offering obeisances to Him, and remembering Him. Following these activities enlightens the devotees with spiritual knowledge.
- Verse 8
dehe boise ripu-gaṇa, yoteko indriya-gaṇa, keho kāro bādhya nāhi hoy śunile nā śune kāna, jānile nā jāne prāṇa, doṛāite nā pāre niścoy
dehe boise ripu-gana, yoteko indriya-gana, keho karo badhya nahi hoy sunile na sune kana, janile na jane prana, doraite na pare niscoy
देहे बोइसे रिपुगण, योतेको इन्द्रियगण, केहो कारो बाध्य नाहि होय शुनिले ना शुने कान, जानिले ना जाने प्राण, दोऋआइते ना पारे निश्चोय
I shall use these senses to serve Lord Govinda, and I shall decline to worship the various demigods and demigoddesses. I shall only speak about pure devotional service. The numberless different philosophies and conceptions of life are all products of the conditioned soul's pride. Trying to understand them brings no real benefit but only a pain within the mind.
- Verse 9
kāma krodha lobha mohwa, mada mātsarya dambha saha, sthāne sthāne niyukta koribo. ānanda kori hṛdoy, ripu kori parājoy, anāyāse govinda bhajibo
kama krodha lobha mohwa, mada matsarya dambha saha, sthane sthane niyukta koribo. ananda kori hrdoy, ripu kori parajoy, anayase govinda bhajibo
काम क्रोध लोभ मोह्wअ, मद मात्सर्य दम्भ सह, स्थाने स्थाने नियुक्त कोरिबो. आनन्द कोरि हृदोय्, रिपु कोरि पराजोय्, अनायासे गोविन्द भजिबो
The insubordinate senses are like enemies that live within the body. Tell the ear to hear and it may rebel, refusing to hear. Tell the mind to understand a particular point, or become firm in a certain way, and it may very well disobey.
- Verse 10
kṛṣṇa sevā kāmārpaṇa, krodha bhakta-dveṣī jane, lobha sādhu-saṅge hari-kathā. moha iṣṭa lābha vine, mada kṛṣṇa guṇa gāne, niyukta koribo yathā tathā
krsna seva kamarpana, krodha bhakta-dvesi jane, lobha sadhu-sange hari-katha. moha ista labha vine, mada krsna guna gane, niyukta koribo yatha tatha
कृष्ण सेवा कामार्पण, क्रोध भक्तद्वेषी जने, लोभ साधुसङ्गे हरिकथा. मोह इष्ट लाभ विने, मद कृष्ण गुण गाने, नियुक्त कोरिबो यथा तथा
I shall fight with lust, anger, bewilderment, greed, madness, envy and pride. Defeating them, I will become blissful at heart, and I will easily become able to worship Lord Govinda.
- Verse 11
anyathā svatantra kāma, anarthādi yāra dhāma, bhakti pathe sadā deya bhaṅga kibā se korite pāre, kāma krodha sādhakere, yadi hoy sādhu janāra saṅga?
anyatha svatantra kama, anarthadi yara dhama, bhakti pathe sada deya bhanga kiba se korite pare, kama krodha sadhakere, yadi hoy sadhu janara sanga?
अन्यथा स्वतन्त्र काम, अनर्थादि यार धाम, भक्ति पथे सदा देय भङ्ग किबा से कोरिते पारे, काम क्रोध साधकेरे, यदि होय साधु जनार सङ्ग?
Lust I will engage in offering the fruits of my work to Lord Krsna. Anger I will direct towards the enemies of the devotees. Greed I will engage by being greedy to hear the topics of Lord Hari in the association of the saintly devotees. Bewilderment will be manifested because I cannot immediately attain my worshipable Lord. Madness will be there when I madly glorify the transcendental attributes of Lord Krsna. In this way I will engage each of these in the service of Lord Krsna.
- Verse 12
krodha vā nā kore kibā, krodha tyāga sadā dibā lobha moha ei to kathana chaya ripu sadā hīna, koribo manera bhina, kṛṣṇacandra koriyā smaraṇa
krodha va na kore kiba, krodha tyaga sada diba lobha moha ei to kathana chaya ripu sada hina, koribo manera bhina, krsnacandra koriya smarana
क्रोध वा ना कोरे किबा, क्रोध त्याग सदा दिबा लोभ मोह एइ तो कथन छय रिपु सदा हीन, कोरिबो मनेर भिन, कृष्णचन्द्र कोरिया स्मरण
If lust is not controlled, then it becomes the breeding ground for a host of vices and checks one's advancement on the path of devotional service. However, if one stays in the association of the saintly devotees, then that association will carry him beyond the influence of lust, anger, and their friends.
- Verse 13
āpani pālābe saba, śuniyā govinda raba, siṁha rabe yeno karigaṇa sakala vipatti yābe, mahānanda sukha pābe yāra hoy ekānta bhajana.
apani palabe saba, suniya govinda raba, simha rabe yeno karigana sakala vipatti yabe, mahananda sukha pabe yara hoy ekanta bhajana.
आपनि पालाबे सब, शुनिया गोविन्द रब, सिंह रबे येनो करिगण सकल विपत्ति याबे, महानन्द सुख पाबे यार होय एकान्त भजन.
I shall not become angry. I shall renounce anger. I shall become free from my six enemies, such as greed and bewilderment. I shall control my mind, and always remember Lord Krsnacandra.
- Verse 14
nā koriho asat ceṣṭā, lābha pūjā pratiṣṭhā, sadā cinta govinda caraṇa sakala vipatti yābe, mahānanda sukha pābe, prema bhakti parama kāraṇa
na koriho asat cesta, labha puja pratistha, sada cinta govinda carana sakala vipatti yabe, mahananda sukha pabe, prema bhakti parama karana
ना कोरिहो असत चेष्टा, लाभ पूजा प्रतिष्ठा, सदा चिन्त गोविन्द चरण सकल विपत्ति याबे, महानन्द सुख पाबे, प्रेम भक्ति परम कारण
When lust and his friends hear the word "Govinda" they immediately begin to flee, as a herd of elephants flees when it hears a lion's roar. If one engages in single-pointed devotional service to Lord Krsna, then the worshipper attains transcendental bliss, and all kinds of calamities flee from him.
- Verse 15
asat kriyā kuṭināṭī, chāḍo anya paripāṭī anya deve nā koriho rati āpana āpana sthāne, pīriti sabhāya ṭāne, bhakti pathe paḍaye vigati
asat kriya kutinati, chado anya paripati anya deve na koriho rati apana apana sthane, piriti sabhaya tane, bhakti pathe padaye vigati
असत क्रिया कुटिनाटी, छाडो अन्य परिपाटी अन्य देवे ना कोरिहो रति आपन आपन स्थाने, पीरिति सभाय टाने, भक्ति पथे पडये विगति
Don't sin. Take no interest in profit, adoration, and distinction. Instead meditate on the lotus feet of Lord Govinda. In this way all sufferings will go far away and transcendental bliss and pure love for Lord Krsna will spontaneously come.
- Verse 16
āpana āpana patha, tāte hobo anurata, iṣṭadeva sthāne līlā gāna naiṣṭhika bhajana ei, tomāre kohilo bhāi hanumān tāhāte pramāṇa
apana apana patha, tate hobo anurata, istadeva sthane lila gana naisthika bhajana ei, tomare kohilo bhai hanuman tahate pramana
आपन आपन पथ, ताते होबो अनुरत, इष्टदेव स्थाने लीला गान नैष्ठिक भजन एइ, तोमारे कोहिलो भाइ हनुमान ताहाते प्रमाण
Give up the association of the impious non-devotees. Give up the tendency to find fault in others. Don't follow any spiritual path other than devotional service. Don't worship the demigods. If one takes to the worship of the demigods, he becomes deviated from the path of devotional service.
- Verse 17
śrī-nāthe janakī nāthe cābhedaḥ paramātmaniḥ tathāpi mama sarvasvaṁ rāmaḥ kamala-locanaḥ
sri-nathe janaki nathe cabhedah paramatmanih tathapi mama sarvasvam ramah kamala-locanah
श्रीनाथे जनकी नाथे चाभेदः परमात्मनिः तथापि मम सर्वस्वं रामः कमललोचनः
O brother, please become attached to your worshipable Lord alone. Serve Him without deviation and sing the glories of His pastimes. I will now quote the words of Hanuman, who demonstrates this exclusive devotion to one's worshipable Deity. Hanuman said: Although He is not different from Lord Narayana, lotus-eyed Lord Rama alone is the be-all and end-all of my life.
- Verse 18
deva-loka, pitṛ-loka, pāya tārā mahā-sukha, sādhu sādhu bole anukṣaṇa yugala bhajana yārā, premānande bhāse tārā, tāhāra nichani tribhuvana
deva-loka, pitr-loka, paya tara maha-sukha, sadhu sadhu bole anuksana yugala bhajana yara, premanande bhase tara, tahara nichani tribhuvana
देवलोक, पितृलोक, पाय तारा महासुख, साधु साधु बोले अनुक्षण युगल भजन यारा, प्रेमानन्दे भासे तारा, ताहार निछनि त्रिभुवन
If one attains the planets of the demigods or Pitas and enjoys celestial happiness there, then I congratulate him, saying: well done, well done. However, I myself would never strive to attain such a thing. For myself I am content simply to worship the Divine Couple and swim and float in the bliss of pure love for Them. This pure love is the most valuable object in the three worlds.
- Verse 19
pṛthak āvāsa yoga, duḥkamaya viṣaya bhoga, vrajavāsa govinda sevana kṛṣṇa kathā kṛṣṇa nāma, satya satya rasa dhāma vraja janera saṅga anukṣaṇa
prthak avasa yoga, duhkamaya visaya bhoga, vrajavasa govinda sevana krsna katha krsna nama, satya satya rasa dhama vraja janera sanga anuksana
पृथक आवास योग, दुःकमय विषय भोग, व्रजवास गोविन्द सेवन कृष्ण कथा कृष्ण नाम, सत्य सत्य रस धाम व्रज जनेर सङ्ग अनुक्षण
Although I have taken great trouble to try to enjoy the miserable sense-gratification available in this world, I shall now give it up. I shall now reside in Vraja, serve Lord Govinda, hear and chant the topics of Lord Krsna, chant the holy names of Lord Krsna, and at every moment relish the transcendental mellows of devotional service in the association of the residents of Vraja.
- Verse 20
sadā sevā abhilāṣa, mane kori viśoyāsa, sarvathāi hoiyā nirbhaya narottame dāse bole, paḍilu asat bhole, paritrāṇa koro mahāśaya
sada seva abhilasa, mane kori visoyasa, sarvathai hoiya nirbhaya narottame dase bole, padilu asat bhole, paritrana koro mahasaya
सदा सेवा अभिलाष, मने कोरि विशोयास, सर्वथाइ होइया निर्भय नरोत्तमे दासे बोले, पडिलु असत भोले, परित्राण कोरो महाशय
I shall always aspire to serve the Lord, and great faith in the Lord will become manifested in my mind. In this way I shall remain always fearless in all situations. Narottama dasa says: Somehow or other I have accepted the role of a non-devotee. O my master, O great soul, please deliver me.
