5 versionsAudio courtesy of ISKCON Desire Tree. All glories to the devotee singers.
O Vaiṣṇava Gosvāmī, please be merciful to me now. There is no one except you who can purify the fallen souls.
Where can anyone find such a merciful personality, whose mere audience sends all sins far away?
One becomes purified after bathing in the waters of the sacred Ganges many times, but just the sight of you purifies the fallen souls. This is your great power.
The holy name delivers one who has offended Lord Hari, but deliverance is impossible if one offends you.
Your heart is always the resting place of Lord Govinda, and Lord Govinda says, "The Vaiṣṇavas are in My heart."
I desire to have the dust of your holy feet in every birth I may take. Please consider Narottama yours, and be kind upon him.
