e duṣṭa hṛdaye kāma ādi ripu chhaya kuṭināṭi pratiṣṭhāśā śāṭhya sadā raya hṛdaya-śodhana āra kṛṣṇera vāsanā nṛsiṃha-caraṇe mora ei to’ kāmanā
Translation

Within my sinful heart the six enemies headed by lust perpetually reside, as well as duplicity, the desire for fame, plus sheer cunning. At the lotus feet of Lord Narasimha, I hope that He will mercifully purify my heart and give me the desire to serve Lord Krsna.

kāndiyā nṛsiṃha-pade māgibo kakhana nirāpade navadvīpe jugala-bhajana bhaya bhaya pāya yāṅra darśane se hari prasanna ha-ibo kabe more dayā kari’
Translation

Weeping, I will beg at the lotus-feet of Lord Narasimha for the benediction of worshipping Radha and Krsna in Navadvipa, perfectly safe and free from all difficulties. When will this Lord Hari, Whose terrible form strikes fear into fear itself, ever become pleased and show me His mercy?

yadyapi bhīṣaṇa mūrti duṣṭa jīva prati prahlādādi kṛṣṇa-bhakta-jane bhadra ati kabe vā prasanna haye sa kṛpa-vacane nirbhaya karibe ei mūḍha akiñcane
Translation

Even though Lord Narasimha is terrifying toward the sinful souls, He offers great auspiciousness unto the devotees of Lord Krsna headed by Prahlada Maharaja. When will He be pleased to speak words of compassion unto me, a worthless fool, and thereby make me fearless?

svachhande baisa he vatsa śrī-gaurāṅga-dhāme jugala-bhajana ha-u, rati ha-u nāme mama bhakta-kṛpā-bale vighna jābe dūra śuddha citte bhaja rādhā-kṛṣṇa rasa-pūra
Translation

He will say, “Dear child! Sit sown freely and live happily here in Sri Gauranga-dhama. May you nicely worship the Divine Couple, and may you develop loving attachment for Their Holy Names. By the mercy of My devotees, all obstacles are cast far away. With a purified heart, just perform the worship of Radha and Krsna, for such worship overflows with sweet nectar.”

ei bali’ kabe mora mastaka-upara svīya śrī-caraṇa harṣe dharibe īśvara amani jugala-preme sāttvika vikāre dharāya luṭibo āmi śrī-nṛsiṃha-dvāre
Translation

Saying this, will that Lord delightedly place His own divine lotus-feet upon my head? I will experience sublime love for the Divine Couple Radha-Krsna and undergo the ecstatic transformations called sattvika. Falling on the ground, I will roll about at the door of Sri Narasimha’s temple.
