- Verse 1
hari he! nīra-dharma-gata, jāhnavī-salile, paṅka-phena dṛṣṭa hoya tathāpi kakhona, brahma-drava-dharma, se salila nā chāḍoya
hari he! nira-dharma-gata, jahnavi-salile, panka-phena drsta hoya tathapi kakhona, brahma-drava-dharma, se salila na chadoya
हरि हे! नीरधर्मगत, जाह्नवीसलिले, पङ्कफेन दृष्ट होय तथापि कखोन, ब्रह्मद्रवधर्म, से सलिल ना छाडोय
Mud and foam are seen in the waters of the Ganges, for that is the inherent nature of river water. Yet Ganges water never loses its transcendental nature.
- Verse 2
vaiṣnava-śarīra, aprākṛta sadā, swabhāva-vapura dharme kabhu nāhe jaḍa, tathāpi ye ninde, poḍe se viṣamādharme
vaisnava-sarira, aprakrta sada, swabhava-vapura dharme kabhu nahe jada, tathapi ye ninde, pode se visamadharme
वैष्नवशरीर, अप्राकृत सदा, स्wअभाववपुर धर्मे कभु नाहे जड, तथापि ये निन्दे, पोडे से विषमाधर्मे
One may likewise find defects in the body of a Vaisnava, yet his body is always spiritual, never material. That person who criticizes the body of a Vaisnava falls into deadly irreligion.
- Verse 3
sei aparādhe, yamera jātanā, pāya jīva avirata he nanda-nandana! sei aparādhe, yeno nāhi hoi hata
sei aparadhe, yamera jatana, paya jiva avirata he nanda-nandana! sei aparadhe, yeno nahi hoi hata
सेइ अपराधे, यमेर जातना, पाय जीव अविरत हे नन्दनन्दन! सेइ अपराधे, येनो नाहि होइ हत
For such an offense, the fallen soul continuously suffers the tortures of Yamaraja, lord of death. O youthful son of Nanda, I pray that I not be destroyed by committing such an offense.
- Verse 4
tomāra vaiṣṇava, vaibhava tomāra, āmāre korunā doyā tabe mora gati, ha’be tava prati, pā’bo tava pada-chāyā
tomara vaisnava, vaibhava tomara, amare koruna doya tabe mora gati, ha’be tava prati, pa’bo tava pada-chaya
तोमार वैष्णव, वैभव तोमार, आमारे कोरुना दोया तबे मोर गति, हऽबे तव प्रति, पाऽबो तव पदछाया
The Vaisnava is Yours, and he is Your glory. May he be merciful to me. Then my life’s journey will lead to You, and I will obtain shelter in the shade of Your lotus feet.
