Translation

Verse 1

Nitāi and Caitanya are exalted avatāras. No one is merciful like Them.

Verse 2

How many hundreds of mlecchas, caṇḍālas, blasphemers, and offenders did They deliver?

Verse 3

Why does the descent of Nitāi and Caitanya to this world mean nothing to me? Alas! My heart is very cruel. How can I live a happy life?

Verse 4

Many many avatāras have come to this world. O my brothers, none of Them are like these avatāras.

Verse 5

I did not worship those two Lords. Raising my hand to my mouth, I have drunk poison.

Verse 6

The whole world is plunged into the nectar of kīrtana brought by Lord Gaura. Alas! Not even a drop of that nectar has touched this unfortunate soul.

Verse 7

With his own hands Kṛṣṇa dāsa pulls the hairs from his head. Alas! Alas! I am very unfortunate! Why do I not die?
