Krpa kara Vaisnav Thakura

By Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur

krpa kara vaisnava thakura
sambandha janiya bhajite bhajite
abhimana hau dura

‘Please be merciful to me, Vaishnav Thakur! I pray that my ego goes away and I may worship the Lord knowing the true relationship’.

'ami ta’ vaisnava’, e buddhi haile
amani na ha'ba ami
pratisthasa asi' hrdaya dusibe
haiba nirayagami

‘If I think, “I am a Vaishnav”, then I will never stop desiring honour—my heart will become polluted with the desire for prestige, and I will end up in hell’.

tomara kinkara, apane janiba,
'guru'-abhimana tyaji'
tomara uchchhista, pada-jala-renu,
sada niskapate bhaji

‘I will consider myself Your servant and give up the ego of a guru. I will always earnestly worship Your remnants, Your foot dust and the water that has washed Your feet’.

‘nije srestha’ jani, uchchhistadi dane,
ha’be abhimana bhara
tai sisya tava, thakiya sarvada
na laiba puja ka'ra

‘If I believe, “I am the greatest”, I will start giving others my food remnants and other things, and my ego will become a heavy burden. Therefore, I pray to always remain your disciple and not take worship from anyone’.

amani manada, haile kirtane,
adhikara dibe tumi
tomara charane, niskapate ami,
kandiya lutiba bhumi

‘When I become free from the desire for honour and learn to give honour to others, you will give me the right to chant Your kirtan. Rolling on the ground, I will earnestly cry at Your holy feet’.
