Eka Bāra Karuṇā Kara Caitanya Nitā I
Tuḍī-rāga
O Lord Caitanya and Lord Nitāi, please be merciful to me this time. In the three worlds there is no sinner like me.
I am a great fool. I have been Māyā's servant. Every sin fills my body.
My sins are more weighty and grave than the sins of all the mlecchas, than all who are falen and ill-behaved.
You delivered the two brotheers Jagāi and Mādhāi even though they had committed every possible sin.
Locana dāsa says: I am very fallen. Why will You not give mercy to me? If You will not give mercy to me, then where will You find a better candidate for your mercy?
