Translation

Verse 1

O Lord Hari, Lord Hari, I have spent my life uselessly. Although I have obtained a human birth, I have refused to worship Radha and Krsna, and in this way I have knowingly drunk poison.

Verse 2

The treasure of love of God has descended from the spiritual world of goloka Vrndavana, appearing in this world as the sankirtana movement of the chanting of Lord Hari's holy names. Why am I not attracted to it? Day and night I burn from the poison of material existance, but still I refuse to take the antidote.

Verse 3

Lord Krsna, the prince of Vraja has appeared as Lord Caitanya, the son of Saci-devi, and Lord Balarama appeared as Lord Nityananda. Those who were most fallen and degraded have become lifted from their fallen condition by the chanting of the holy Name of Lord Hari. The story of Jagai and Madhai testifies to the truth of this.

Verse 4

O Lord Krsna, O son of Maharaja Nanda, O companion of Srimati Radharani, the daughter of Maharaja Vrsabhanu, please be merciful to me. Now that I have finally attained Your reddish lotus feet, please do not push me away. Except for You, who is my shelter?
