I established a household with her and wasted so much time. We had many sons and daughters, and I became distressed at heart.

saṁsārera bhāra, bāḍe dine dine, acala hoilo gati bārdhakya āsiyā, gherilo āmāre, asthira hoilo mati
अर्थ

The burden of my household increased day by day, and my progress towards attaining the goal of life came to a standstill. As old age came and besieged me, my mind became disturbed.

अर्थ

Restless with disease and feverish with anxiety, my heart burns with unfulfilled desire. I see no way out of this darkness and have now become fearful.

अर्थ

There is no end to the torrent of the river of household life, and fearsome death always looms nearby. “After finishing all of this, I will serve You”—this hope of mine has proven vain.

अर्थ

Now please listen, O Lord! I am utterly helpless. Bhakti Vinod prays, “Without Your mercy, everything is hopeless. Please give me the shelter of Your feet.”
