Keno Hare Krsna Nam lyrics

(refrain) keno hare kṛṣṇa nām hari bole mano prāṇ kāṅde nā

(refrain) keno hare krsna nam hari bole mano pran kande na

(रेfरैन्) केनो हरे कृष्ण नाम हरि बोले मनो प्राण काङ्दे ना

The bird of my heart does not know what past sinful activities in has committed to cause this inability to chant Hare Krsna properly.

pākhi nā jāni kon aparādhe mukhe hare kṛṣṇa nām bolo nā

pakhi na jani kon aparadhe mukhe hare krsna nam bolo na

पाखि ना जानि कोन अपराधे मुखे हरे कृष्ण नाम बोलो ना

The bird of my heart does not know what past sinful activities in has committed to cause this inability to chant Hare Krsna properly.

baner pākhi re dhare rākhalām hṛdoy mandire madhu mākhā ei hari nām pākhi re sikhaile sikhe

baner pakhi re dhare rakhalam hrdoy mandire madhu makha ei hari nam pakhi re sikhaile sikhe

बनेर पाखि रे धरे राखलाम हृदोय मन्दिरे मधु माखा एइ हरि नाम पाखि रे सिखैले सिखे

O forest bird! I have kept something for you very carefully within the cottage of my heart , the holy name of Hari, which is overflowing with pure sweet honey. O bird, you could learn the chanting of this name if you were taught.

pākhi sakal nām bolte paro keno hare kṛṣṇa nām bolo nā keno hare kṛṣṇa nām hari bole mano prāṇ kāṅde nā

pakhi sakal nam bolte paro keno hare krsna nam bolo na keno hare krsna nam hari bole mano pran kande na

पाखि सकल नाम बोल्ते परो केनो हरे कृष्ण नाम बोलो ना केनो हरे कृष्ण नाम हरि बोले मनो प्राण काङ्दे ना

A bird is easily able to speak all names; why then does this bird of my heart refuse to chant Hare Krsna? Oh, why does my heart not weep from chanting the holy names Hare Krsna?

calo pākhi rūper deśe jāi je deśete maner mānuś āśā jāoyā nāi

calo pakhi ruper dese jai je desete maner manus asa jaoya nai

चलो पाखि रूपेर देशे जाइ जे देशेते मनेर मानुश आशा जाओया नाइ

O bird! Come, let us go to the spiritual world, the land of true and everlasting beauty. It is the place where the imaginary man of my mind will never again come and go on the revolving cycle of birth and death.

pākhi re tor maraṇa kālete carabī vāser dolāte ore cār janete kandhe kore loye jābe smaśān ghāṭete

pakhi re tor marana kalete carabi vaser dolate ore car janete kandhe kore loye jabe smasan ghatete

पाखि रे तोर मरण कालेते चरबी वासेर दोलाते ओरे चार जनेते कन्धे कोरे लोये जाबे स्मशान घाटेते

O bird! At the time of death, your body will simply be placed upon a funeral stretcher, lifted on the shoulders of four persons and carried to the cremation grounds.

ore o tor mukhe āguna jihve tule ki korobi tāi bolo nā

ore o tor mukhe aguna jihve tule ki korobi tai bolo na

ओरे ओ तोर मुखे आगुन जिह्वे तुले कि कोरोबि ताइ बोलो ना

Alas! The cremation fire will enter your mouth and then totally consume your tongue. There will be nothing you can do to save yourself; for at that time, it is too late , you will be unable to speak anymore.
