Kabe Sri Caitanya More Koribena Doya
Ucchvasa : Prarthana Dainyamayi Song 1
kabe śrī caitanya more karibena dayā
kabe āmi paiba vaiṣṇava-pada-chāyā
When will Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu show His causeless mercy to me by allowing me to attain the shade of the lotus feet of all the Vaisnavas?
kabe āmi chāḍiba e viṣayābhimāna
kabe viṣṇu-jane āmi kariba sammāna
When will I be able to give up this false ego which is so deeply engrossed in sense gratification? And when will I be able to properly honor the associates of the Lord?
gala- vastra kṛtāñjali vaiṣṇava-nikaṭe
dante tṛṇa kari ' dāḍāiba niṣkapaṭe
I will stand before the Vaisnavas with folded hands, a cloth binding my neck, and a straw in between my teeth, sincerely awaiting their order.
kādiyā kādiyā jānāiba duḥkha-grāma
saṁsāra-anala haite māgiba viśrāma
Weeping and weeping, I will understand the real nature of this abode of misery, and I will beg for relief from the blazing fire of this material world.
śuniyā āmāra duḥkha vaiṣṇava ṭhākura
āmā ' lāgi ' kṛṣṇe āvedibena pracura
Hearing about all of my miserable sufferings, the Vaisnavas Thakura will submit an appeal unto the Lord Krsna on my behalf.
vaiṣṇavera āvedane kṛṣṇa dayāmaya
e hena pāmara prati ha'bena sa-daya
By the prayer of the Vaisnavas the all-merciful Lord Krsna will then become compassionate towards such a sinner as me.
vinodera nivedana vaiṣṇava-caraṇe
kṛpā kari ' saṅge laha ei akiñcane
Bhaktivinoda's prayer unto the lotus feet of the Vaisnavas is that: "Please be merciful and take this worthless person into your association".
