LYRICS:

(1)

hari he!

tomāre bhuliyā, avidyā-pīḍāya,

pīḍita rasanā mora

kṛṣṇa-nāma-sudhā, bhālo nāhi lāge,

viṣaya-sukhate bhora

(2)

prati-dina jadi, ādara koriyā,

se nāma kīrtana kori

sitapala jeno, nāśi’ roga-mūla,

krame swādu hoya, hari!

(3)

durdaiva āmāra, se nāme ādara,

nā hoilo, doyāmoya!

daśa aparādha, āmāra durdaiva,

kemone hoibe kṣoya

(4)

anudina jeno, tava nāma gāi,

kramete kṛpāya tava

aparādha jā’be, nāme ruci ha’be,

āswādibo nāmāsava

TRANSLATION

1) O Lord Hari, because I forgot You my tongue has become afflicted with the disease of ignorance. I cannot relish the nectar of Your holy name, for I have become addicted to the taste of worldly pleasures.

2) O Lord Hari, if I sing Your holy name aloud every day with great respect, then as sugar candy taken medicinally destroys the very disease which makes it taste bitter (jaundice), so Your holy name will cure my spiritual disease and allow me to gradually taste His sweetness.

3) O merciful Lord, how great is my misfortune that I feel no appreciation for Your holy name! In such a lamentable state, how will I be freed from committing the ten offenses to the holy name?

4) If I sing Your holy name every day, by Your mercy the ten offenses will gradually disappear. A taste for Your holy name will grow within me, and then I will taste the intoxicating spirit of the name.
