1

sādhu-saṅga nā hoilo hāya gelo dina akaraṇa kori' artha uparjana paramārtha rohilo kothāya

अर्थ

Alas! I did not associate with devotees. My days passed uselessly. I earned money, but where was my spiritual wealth?

2

subarṇa koriyā tyāga tuccha loṣṭre anurāga durbhagara ei to' lakhaṇa kṛṣṇetara saṅga kori' sādhu-jane parihori' mada-garbe kāṭānu jībana

अर्थ

Rejecting gold, I fell in love with clumps of earth. That was my misfortune. Rejecting the saintly devotees, I associated with non-devotees. I passed my life in passion and pride.

3

bhakti-mūdra-daraśane hāsya koritama mane bātulatā boliyā tāhāya je sabhyatā śreṣṭha gaṇi' harāinu cintāmaṇi śeṣe tāhā rohilo kothāya

अर्थ

Seeing someone bearing the signs of devotion to the Lord, I would laugh in my heart. "That is craziness", I would say. Thinking I had already attained the company of the most cultured and civilized people, I rejected a cintāmaṇi jewel. Where am I now?

4

jñānera garimā bale bhakti-rūpa su-sambale upekhinu swārtha pāśariyā duṣṭa joḍāśrita-jñāna ebe ho'lo antardhāna karma-bhoge āmāke rākhiyā

अर्थ

Forgetting my true benefit, I was proud of my material knowledge and contemptuous of devotional service. Now my wicked material knowledge has disappeared. Now I have only the results of my karma.

5

ebe jadi sādhu-jane kṛpā kori' e durjane dena bhakti-samudrera bindhu tā' hoile anāyāse mukta ho'ye bhaba-pāśe pāra hoi e soṁsāra sindhu

अर्थ

If the saintly devotees mercifully give to this sinner a single drop from the ocean of devotional service, then I will be freed from the noose of birth and death. Then I will easily cross to the farther shore of the ocean of birth and death.
