Nivedana Kori Prabhu Tomar Carane

Atma Nivedana Song 7

1

nivedana
kori prabhu! tomāra caraṇe patita
adhama āmi, jāne tri-bhuvane

I submit at Your lotus feet, O Lord, that I am fallen and wretched, a fact known to the three worlds.

2

āmā-sama
pāpī nāhi jagat-bhitore mama
sama aparādhī nāhiko saṁsāre

There is no sinner more sinful than me. In the entire material creation there is no offender whose offenses equal mine.

3

sei
saba pāpa āra aparādha, āmi parihāre
pāi lajjā, saba jāno' tumi

By attempting to clear myself of all these sins and offenses I am put to shame and beg Your forgiveness. All this is understood by You.

4

tumi
binā kā'ra āmi loibo śaraṇ? tumi
sarveśvareśvara, brajendra-nandan!

Of whom will I take shelter except for You? O son of the King of Vraja, You are the Lord of all lords.

5

jagat
tomāra nātha! tumi sarva-moy tomā
prati aparādha tumi koro' kṣoy

This world is Yours, and You pervade all things in it. You forgive the offenses committed against You.

6

tumi
to' skhalita-pada janera āśroy tumi
binā āra kibā āche, doyā-moy!

You alone are the shelter of those who have gone astray. Apart from You, what else exists, O merciful Lord?

7

sei-rūpa
tava aparādhī jana jata tomāra
śaraṇāgata hoibe satata

Those like me who have offended You will know no peace until achieving Your shelter.

8

bhakativinoda
ebe loiyā śaraṇ tuwā
pade kore āj ātma-samarpaṇ

Bhaktivinoda takes shelter in You and surrenders himself at Your lotus feet on this very day.
