hari he taba pada-paṅkajinī jībāmṛta-sañcāriṇī ati-bhāgye jība tāhā pāya se amṛta pāna kori' mugdha hoya tāhā hori āra tāhā chāḍite nā cāya
hari he taba pada-pankajini jibamrta-sancarini ati-bhagye jiba taha paya se amrta pana kori' mugdha hoya taha hori ara taha chadite na caya
हरि हे तब पदपङ्कजिनी जीबामृतसञ्चारिणी अतिभाग्ये जीब ताहा पाय से अमृत पान कोरिऽ मुग्ध होय ताहा होरि आर ताहा छाडिते ना चाय
Oh my Lord Hari! Your lotus feet distribute the nectar of eternal devotional service to the surrender souls, and only by dint of the greatest good fortune can any soul drink such nectar. By drinking this rare ambrosia they become attracted and captivated, and by being completely absorbed in this transcendental honey of devotion, they will never want to abandon drinking it.
- Verse 2
nibiṣṭa hoiyā tāya anya sthāne nāhi jāya anya rasa tuccha kori' mane madhu-pūrṇa-padma-sthita madhubrata kadācita nāhi cāya ikhu-daṇḍa-pāne
nibista hoiya taya anya sthane nahi jaya anya rasa tuccha kori' mane madhu-purna-padma-sthita madhubrata kadacita nahi caya ikhu-danda-pane
निबिष्ट होइया ताय अन्य स्थाने नाहि जाय अन्य रस तुच्छ कोरिऽ मने मधुपूर्णपद्मस्थित मधुब्रत कदाचित नाहि चाय इखुदण्डपाने
Being deeply engrossed in this jivamrta, they will never ever go anywhere else, for they will then consider all other tastes to be simply insignificant and verily nauseating. It is just like when a bee is fully satisfied, tasting the sweet honey within the whorl of a lotus flower, then he won't even consider the inferior sweetness of sugarcane juice.
- Verse 3
e bhaktibinoda kabe se paṅkaja-sthita ha'be nāhi ja'be soṁsārābhimukhe bhakta-kṛpā bhakti-bala ei duiṭī su-sambala pāile se sthiti ghaṭe sukhe
e bhaktibinoda kabe se pankaja-sthita ha'be nahi ja'be somsarabhimukhe bhakta-krpa bhakti-bala ei duiti su-sambala paile se sthiti ghate sukhe
ए भक्तिबिनोद कबे से पङ्कजस्थित हऽबे नाहि जऽबे सोंसाराभिमुखे भक्तकृपा भक्तिबल एइ दुइटी सुसम्बल पाइले से स्थिति घटे सुखे
Bhaktivinoda now says that when I become situated at those lotus-like feet, then I will never again go towards the material world. And I will happily attain a place at those lotus feet only due to two most auspicious things... the causeless mercy of the devotee and the power of devotion.
