Dainyātmikā
by Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākur
(prabhu he!) emona durmati, saṁsāra bhitore, poḍiyā āchinu āmi tava nija-jana, kono mahājane, pāṭhāiyā dile tumi 1 A wicked mind brought me into this world, O Lord, but one of Your pure and elevated devotees has come to bring me out.
doyā kori more, patita dekhiyā, kohilo āmāre giyā ohe dīna-jon, śuno bhālo kathā ullasita ho’be hiyā 2 He saw me so fallen and wretched, took pity, and came to me saying, “O humbled soul, please listen to this good tiding, for it will gladden your heart.”
tomāre tārite, śrī-kṛṣṇa-chaitanya, nabadvīpe avatār tomā heno koto, dīna hīna jone, korilena bhava-pār 3 “Śrī Krishna Chaitanya has appeared in the land of Nabadwīp to deliver you. He has safely conducted many miserable souls such as you across the sea of worldly existence.”
