Ki Rupe Paibo Seva
Bhajan | Narottama Dasa Thakura
Verse 1
ki rūpe pāibo sevā mui durācāra
śrī guru vaiṣṇave rati nā hoilo āmāra
Verse 2
aśeṣa māyāte mana magana hoilo
vaiṣṇavete leśa mātra rati nā janmilo
Verse 3
viṣaye bhuliyā andha hoinu divā-niśi
gale phāńsa dite phire māyā se piśācī
Verse 4
ihāre koriyā jaya chāḍāno nā yāya
sādhu kṛpā vinā āra nāhiko upāya
Verse 5
adoṣa-daraśi prabhu! patita uddhāra
ei bāra narottame koroho nistāra
Verse 1
I have no devotion for either the Vaisnavas or my own spiritual master. How is it possible for a rascal like me to attain devotional service?
Verse 2
My mind is always drowning in illusion. I have not even the smallest fragment of devotion for the Vaisnavas.
Verse 3
I have become blind by constantly meditating on the objects of the senses. The maya-witch has placed a hangman;s noose around my neck.
Verse 4
Even if I can cure my blindness and defeat the maya-hangman, I cannot become free from material illusion without the mercy of the saintly devotees.
Verse 5
O master, O purifier of the sinful, O savior of the fallen souls, please rescue this Narottama dasa.
