Translation

Verse 1

O merciful Lord! I have surrendered all that is meant by the words ‘I’ and ‘mine’ at Your feet.

Verse 2

O Lord! I no longer remain ‘mine’. I have now become Yours exclusively.

Verse 3

I now understand that the word ‘I’ means the soul who animates the material body and have thus abandoned all false egotism. Today the ego of being ‘Your own’ has entered my heart.

Verse 4

All my possessions – body, brothers, friends, and followers, wife, sons, personal belongings, house and home- all of these I give You, for I have become Your servant. Now I dwell inYour house.

Verse 5

All of that has become Yours, and I have become Your servant. Now I reside in Your own home.

Verse 6

You are the master of the house, and I am Your servant. All my endeavours are now for Your satisfaction.

Verse 7

Whatever good or bad deeds are performed by my gross and subtle bodies are no longer mine, O Lord! I am free.

Verse 8

My desires have merged with Your desires. Today, Bhakti Vinod has forgotten himself.
