Mana Tumi Bhālabāsa Kāmera Taraṅga
O my heart, why do you play in the waves of material desire? Turn from material desire. Try to fulfill spiritual desires. Enjoy spiritual pleasures.
Material desire will give you only temporary things. It will never let you be peaceful. It will never let you rest. Your thirst for material things will never be slaked. You desire many material things, but you will never attain them, or if you do attain them, they will soon flee far away.
You served material desire, and it gave you nothing. It only made Bhaktivinoda's limbs burn with flames of suffering. Turn from desiring what is false. Desire what is real. Worship the Kāmadeva of Vṛndāvana. Wounded by His flower-arrows, you will manifest a different, an eternal body, a body filled with spiritual love.
