Dharma Pathe Thāki' Koro Jīvana Jāpana Bhāi
O my dear brothers! Just pass your lives by adhering to the proper path of religiosity. Constantly chant Hari-nāma, O brothers, for other than Lord Hari you have no friend.
Accepting whatever livelihood that suits you, just live your life honestly. Fill your mouths with the constant chanting of "Hari! Hari!"-this is the only alms I beg of you.
Remain absorbed in the lotus feet of Lord Gaurāṅga, renounce all other ambitions, and worship Vrajendra-Nandan.iv If you would do this much, then I will experience great pleasure.
I am Chāṅd Bāul Dās, and I wish only to receive your mercy. I have informed you of my desires, for I sing as I have been personally ordered by Lord Nityānanda.
