Translation

Verse 1

O my heart, you are very suspicious. You came to this world of birth and death. You were imprisoned in this world of matter. Now you are attached to dull material things.

Verse 2

Forgetting your true home, you serve material desires. You see nothing but matter. Your true identity is covered, almost lost, hidden inside your body.

Verse 3

You always think of material things. Your actions are all material. To whom will I tell my sufferings? Turning away from your eternal master, you take shelter of something worthless and pathetic.

Verse 4

You don't see the truth of the soul. You have turned from the pure truth. You are not interested in the soul. More and more you like to doubt, "Does the soul exist, or not?"

Verse 5

In this way you gradually fell in the illusions of matter. You became different from what you really are. Please take my advice. Don't be a thief who robs the soul. Associate with the Lord's devotees.

Verse 6

By the power of the Vaiṣṇavas' mercy, you will conquer all doubts. Your soul will be yours again. You will go to the world of Vṛndāvana. Tears in your eyes and the hairs of your body erect with joy, you will serve Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa.

Verse 7

Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa's graceful feet are the great treasure carefully kept by Bhaktivinoda. That treasure I will always love.
