mana, tore boli e barata apakka bayase hay, bancita bancaka-pa'y, bikaile nija-svatantrata
mana, tore boli e barata apakka bayase hay, bancita bancaka-pa'y, bikaile nija-svatantrata
मन, तोरे बोलि ए बरत अपक्क बयसे हय्, बन्चित बन्चकपऽय्, बिकैले निजस्वतन्त्रत
My dear mind, I have this message to convey to you. Alas, how remorseful it is that you have sold your own individuality and freedom to choose intelligently, due to being cheated by other cheaters who dissuade you away from the path of spiritual life given you by your guru. At your tender immature stage of spiritual realization, you listen to such cheaters, only to be misled from the true path.
- Verse 2
sampradaye dosa-bhuddhi, jani' tumi atma-suddhi, koribare hoile sabadhan na nile tilaka-mala, tyajile diksar jvala nije koile nabina-bidhan
sampradaye dosa-bhuddhi, jani' tumi atma-suddhi, koribare hoile sabadhan na nile tilaka-mala, tyajile diksar jvala nije koile nabina-bidhan
सम्प्रदये दोसभुद्धि, जनिऽ तुमि अत्मसुद्धि, कोरिबरे होइले सबधन न निले तिलकमल, त्यजिले दिक्सर ज्वल निजे कोइले नबिनबिधन
You now have a new talent for finding faults with the society of devotees and the whole disciplic succession as well. Constantly trying to be aware of these minor faults that you find, you become very careful to try to "purify" yourself. Wearing neck beads no longer, marking your forehead with tilaka no longer, you have now made up your own new set of rules and regulations. You have rejected your initiating spiritual master (diksa-guru), because you now imagine his influence to be a burning sensation in your heart.
- Verse 3
purva-mate tali diya, nija-mata pracariya, nije avatar buddhi dhori' bratacar na maile, purva-patha jale dile, mahajane bhrama-drsti kori'
purva-mate tali diya, nija-mata pracariya, nije avatar buddhi dhori' bratacar na maile, purva-patha jale dile, mahajane bhrama-drsti kori'
पुर्वमते तलि दिय, निजमत प्रचरिय, निजे अवतर बुद्धि धोरिऽ ब्रतचर न मैले, पुर्वपथ जले दिले, महजने भ्रमद्र्स्ति कोरिऽ
Dear mind, you artificially, agree with your former opinion, but you really don't accept or follow it, and instead you broadcast your own whimsical philosophy just to establish yourself as some sort of incarnation. Trying to find mistakes in the spiritual process and activities of the great devotees, you completely toss out your previous spiritual path as rubbish, neglecting all of your former vows and practices.
- Verse 4
phonta, diksa, mala dhori', dhurta kore' su-caturi, tai tahe tomar biraga mahajana-pathe dosa, dekhiya tomar rosa, patha-prati charo anuraga
phonta, diksa, mala dhori', dhurta kore' su-caturi, tai tahe tomar biraga mahajana-pathe dosa, dekhiya tomar rosa, patha-prati charo anuraga
फोन्त, दिक्स, मल धोरिऽ, धुर्त कोरेऽ सुचतुरि, तै तहे तोमर बिरग महजनपथे दोस, देखिय तोमर रोस, पथप्रति छरो अनुरग
You have become most displeased because you think that tilaka, initiation, and neck beads are accepted only by sly, cunning cheaters. You become angry when you find some insignificant fault with the process of the treat souls, and thus you reject all attachment to the path.
- Verse 5
ekhan dekhaha bhai, svarna chari' loile chai, ihakal parakal jay kapata bolila sabe, bhakati ba pele kabe, dehante ba ki ho'be upay?
ekhan dekhaha bhai, svarna chari' loile chai, ihakal parakal jay kapata bolila sabe, bhakati ba pele kabe, dehante ba ki ho'be upay?
एखन देखह भै, स्वर्न छरिऽ लोइले छै, इहकल परकल जय कपत बोलिल सबे, भकति ब पेले कबे, देहन्ते ब कि होऽबे उपय्?
Now just see here, dear brother, your present life as well as your future life are at stake. You have renounced pure gold simply to take some worthless ashes. Everyone says that you are bogus. If you don't accept the process of bona fide devotional service, then how will you be delivered at the time of your death?
