- Verse 1
ṭhākura vaiṣṇava pada, avanīra sampada, śuno bhāi hoiyā eka mana āśraya loiyā bhaje, tāre kṛṣṇa nāhi tyaje, āra saba more akāraṇa
thakura vaisnava pada, avanira sampada, suno bhai hoiya eka mana asraya loiya bhaje, tare krsna nahi tyaje, ara saba more akarana
ठाकुर वैष्णव पद, अवनीर सम्पद, शुनो भाइ होइया एक मन आश्रय लोइया भजे, तारे कृष्ण नाहि त्यजे, आर सब मोरे अकारण
O brother, please hear my words with rapt attention. The lotus feet of the Vaisnavas are the most valuable treasure of this world. These Vaisnavas continually take shelter of Lord Krsna and worship Him. They never abandon their Lord. They are liberated. They are free from the cycle of birth and death.
- Verse 2
vaiṣṇava caraṇa jala, prema bhakti dite bol, āra keho nahe balavanta vaiṣṇava caraṇa reṇu, mastake bhūṣaṇa vinu, āra nāhi bhūṣaṇera anta
vaisnava carana jala, prema bhakti dite bol, ara keho nahe balavanta vaisnava carana renu, mastake bhusana vinu, ara nahi bhusanera anta
वैष्णव चरण जल, प्रेम भक्ति दिते बोल्, आर केहो नहे बलवन्त वैष्णव चरण रेणु, मस्तके भूषण विनु, आर नाहि भूषणेर अन्त
The water that has washed the lotus feet of the Vaisnavas bestows devotional service in pure love of God. Nothing else is as effective for attaining this divine love. I place dust from the lotus feet of the Vaisnavas upon my head. I wear no other ornament.
- Verse 3
tīrtha jala pavitra guṇe, likhiyāche purāṇe, se saba bhaktira pravañcana vaiṣṇavera pādodaka, sama nahe ei saba, yāte hoy vāñchita pūraṇa
tirtha jala pavitra gune, likhiyache purane, se saba bhaktira pravancana vaisnavera padodaka, sama nahe ei saba, yate hoy vanchita purana
तीर्थ जल पवित्र गुणे, लिखियाछे पुराणे, से सब भक्तिर प्रवञ्चन वैष्णवेर पादोदक, सम नहे एइ सब, याते होय वाञ्छित पूरण
The purifying power of the waters at the various holy places of pilgrimage is described in the Puranas, although this is something of a deceptive trick. Actually there is not anything as purifying as the water that has washed the lotus feet of the Vaisnavas. This water fulfills all desires.
- Verse 4
vaiṣṇava saṅgete mana, ānandita anukṣaṇa, sadā hoy kṛṣṇa parasaṅga dīna narottama kānde, hiyā dhairya nāhi bāndhe mora daśā keno hoilo bhaṅga
vaisnava sangete mana, anandita anuksana, sada hoy krsna parasanga dina narottama kande, hiya dhairya nahi bandhe mora dasa keno hoilo bhanga
वैष्णव सङ्गेते मन, आनन्दित अनुक्षण, सदा होय कृष्ण परसङ्ग दीन नरोत्तम कान्दे, हिया धैर्य नाहि बान्धे मोर दशा केनो होइलो भङ्ग
Moment after moment my mind finds pleasure in the association of the Vaisnavas. I always seek out the company of those who are devoted to Lord Krsna. Poor-hearted Narottama dasa breaks down and cries. How has this fallen condition come upon me?
