Aham Mama Sabda Arthe Jaha Kichu Hoy

`ahaṁ mama’-śabda-arthe jāhā kichu hoy arpiluṅ tomāra pade, ohe doyā-moy!

O merciful Lord! I have surrendered all that is meant by the words ‘I’ and ‘mine’ at Your feet.

`āmāra’ āmi to’ nātha! nā rohinu ār ekhona hoinu āmi kevala tomār

O Lord! I no longer remain ‘mine’. I have now become Yours exclusively.

`āmi’ śabde dehī jīva ahaṁtā chāḍilo twadīyābhimāna āji hṛdoye paśilo

I now understand that the word ‘I’ means the soul who animates the material body and have thus abandoned all false egotism. Today the ego of being ‘Your own’ has entered my heart.

āmār sarvasva—deho, geho anucar bhāi, bandhu, dārā, suta, dravya, dwāra, ghar

All my possessions – body, brothers, friends, and followers, wife, sons, personal belongings, house and home- all of these I give You, for I have become Your servant. Now I dwell inYour house.

se saba hoilo tava, āmi hoinu dās tomāra gṛhete ebe āmi kori bās

All of that has become Yours, and I have become Your servant. Now I reside in Your own home.

tumi gṛha-swāmī, āmi sevaka tomār tomāra sukhete ceṣṭā ekhona āmār

You are the master of the house, and I am Your servant. All my endeavours are now for Your satisfaction.

sthūla-liṅga-dehe mora sukṛta duṣkṛta āra mora nahe, prabhu! āmi to’ niṣkṛta

Whatever good or bad deeds are performed by my gross and subtle bodies are no longer mine, O Lord! I am free.

tomāra icchāya mora icchā miśāilo bhakativinoda āja āpane bhulilo

My desires have merged with Your desires. Today, Bhakti Vinod has forgotten himself.
