Para Tattva Bicaksana lyrics

hari he para-tattwa bicakṣaṇa byāsa ādi muni-gaṇa śāstra bicāriyā bāra bāra prabhu taba nitya-rūpa guṇa-śīla anurūpa tomāra caritra sudhā-sāra

hari he para-tattwa bicaksana byasa adi muni-gana sastra bicariya bara bara prabhu taba nitya-rupa guna-sila anurupa tomara caritra sudha-sara

हरि हे परतत्त्wअ बिचक्षण ब्यास आदि मुनिगण शास्त्र बिचारिया बार बार प्रभु तब नित्यरूप गुणशील अनुरूप तोमार चरित्र सुधासार

(1-2) Oh my Lord! All the great sages headed by Srila Vyasadeva are most experienced and wise regarding the transcendental truth. This is because they discuss and deliberate on the revealed scriptures again and again. Thereby they help to manifest these sacred literatures which reveal Your eternal personal form abounding in all virtuous qualities, Your divine character which is the very essence of ambrosial nectar as well as Your eternal pastimes of pure transcendental goodness. These principle scriptures thus prescribe the path of auspicious well-being for all souls. However, those unfortunate souls who are blinded by the material modes of passion and ignorance, who harbor the nature of demons, and who are foolish and dull-minded cannot possibly understand Your divine form or pastimes which are described throughout all these scriptures.

nāhi māne nitya-rūpa bhajiyā maṇḍūka-kūpa rahe tāhe udāsīna prāya e bhaktibinoda gāya ki durdaiba haya hāya hari-dāsa nāhi hari pāya

nahi mane nitya-rupa bhajiya manduka-kupa rahe tahe udasina praya e bhaktibinoda gaya ki durdaiba haya haya hari-dasa nahi hari paya

नाहि माने नित्यरूप भजिया मण्डूककूप रहे ताहे उदासीन प्राय ए भक्तिबिनोद गाय कि दुर्दैब हय हाय हरिदास नाहि हरि पाय

Those who live in this universe but are not interested in Your eternal form remain completely oblivious just like ignorant frogs who live in a small, shallow well. Now Bhaktivinoda sings, alas! What an unfortunate, sorry situation has arisen here! For it seems that the eternal servants of Hari have not become fixed up in the service of their eternal Lord Hari.
