Āmi Aparādhī Jana Sadā Daṇḍya Durlakhaṇa
O Lord Kṛṣṇa, I, an offender, a sinner with thousands and thousands of faults, a sinner who should be punished forever, have fallen into the horrible belly of the ocean of birth and death. Shelterless, I yearn for shelter.
O Lord Kṛṣṇa, pushed by fear, I surrender to Your feet. Please kindly accept me. O Lord, You promised to protect the souls that surrender to You.
O Kṛṣṇa, O master of my life, trusting in Your promise, this servant now surrenders unto You. Bhaktivinoda sings: To this servant please give pastimes of serving Your reddish feet.
