Kabe Sri Caitanya More Koribena Doya

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.

kāndiyā kāndiyā 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 Vaisnava 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’ sańge 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".
