Ki Jani Ki Bale

I do not know by what force I have taken shelter within Your abode. You are the merciful saviour of the fallen, who is ever engaged in delivering them.

bharasā āmāra, ei mātra nātha! tumi to’ karunā-moy tava doyā-pātra, nāhi mora sama, avaśya ghucābe bhoy bharasā–hope

O Lord! You are merciful. This is my sole hope. There is no candidate for Your mercy like me, certainly You will dispel all my fear.

āmāre tārite, kāhāro śakati, avanī-bhitore nāhi doyāla ṭhākura! ghoṣanā tomāra, adhama pāmare trāhi āmāre–to me

There is no one on Earth who has the power to deliver me. O merciful Lord! It is Your declaration that You deliver the lowest, most sinful persons.

sakala chāḍiyā, āsiyāchi āmi, tomāra caraṇe nātha! āmi nitya-dāsa, tumi pālayitā, tumi goptā, jagannātha! sakala–everything

Abandoning everything, I have come to Your feet, O Lord! I am Your eternal servant, and You are my maintainer and protector, O Lord of the universe!

tomāra sakala, āmi mātra dāsa, āmāra tāribe tumi tomāra caraṇa, korinu varaṇa, āmāra nāhi to’ āmi tomāra–Yours

Everything is Yours. I am only a servant. Certainly You will deliver me. I have embraced Your feet and no longer belong to myself.

bhakativinoda, kāṅdiyā śaraṇa, lo’yeche tomāra pāy kṣami’ aparādha, nāme ruci diyā, pālana korohe tāy bhakati-vinoda–Bhakti Vinod

Crying, Bhakti Vinod has taken shelter at Your feet. Forgiving his offences and granting him taste for Your Name, please maintain him.
