O Gopīnātha, I have no other hope. Only if You kindly take me will I escape this world of birth and death.
O Gopīnātha, I fell into Māyā's dangerous trap. Wife, children, and wealth surround me. Now I must face the consequences of my material desires.
O Gopīnātha, my crazy mind never understands good advice. It keeps me stunned, trapped in the horrors of sense pleasures.
O Gopīnātha, now I accept defeat. My many struggles were fruitless. I have faith only in You.
O Gopīnātha, what will become of me? My mind has become the slave of my powerful senses. It will not give up its love for sense pleasures.
O Gopīnātha, please stay in my heart. Please pacify my mind. Please accept me. Please destroy these terrible calamities.
O Gopīnātha, You are the master of the senses. Seeing that I have no one to protect me, please control my senses and deliver me from this horrible world of birth and death.
O Gopīnātha, the noose is now around my neck. Grasping the sword of mercy, please cut that noose. Please make Bhaktivinoda Your servant.
