Ore Mana Karmera Kuhare Gelo Kala
Bhajan | Bhaktivinoda Thakura
Verse 1
ore mana karmera kuhare gelo kāla
swargādi sukhera āśe porilāma karma-phāṅse
ūrṇanābhi-sama karma-jāla
Verse 2
upabāsa-brata dhori' nānā kāya-kleśa kori'
bhasme ghṛta ḍāliyā apāra
marilāma nija doṣe jarā-maraṇera phāṅse
hoibāre nārinu uddhāra
Verse 3
barṇāśrama-dharma yaji' nānā deba-debī bhaji'
mada-garbe kāṭāinu jībana
sthīra nā hoilo mana nā labhinu śānti-dhana
na bhajinu śrī-kṛṣṇa-caraṇa
Verse 4
dhik mora e jībana dhik mora dhana-jane
dhik mora barṇa-abhimāna
dhik mora kula-māne dhik śāstra-adhyāyane
hari-bhakti nā pāilo sthāna
Verse 1
O my heart, my time has passed in karma's pit. Hankering for the pleasures of Svargaloka, I fell into karma's net, spread out like a spider's web.
Verse 2
Fasting and torturing my body in many ways, I poured ghee on the ashes. By my own fault I now stand in the noose of old-age and death. I have no way to escape.
Verse 3
Following varṇāśrama-dharma, worshiping many demigods and goddesses, and filled with pride, I passed my life.Now my heart is not peaceful. I did not find the treasure that is peace. I did not wership Lord Kṛṣṇa's feet.
Verse 4
Pathetic is my life! Pathetic are my wealth and followers! Pathetic is my pride of caste! Pathetic is my pride of family! Pathetic is my study of scripture. I did not attain devotion to Lord Kṛṣṇa.
