jiv jago, jiv jago, gauracanda bole
kota nidra jao maya-pisacira kole

[Lord Gauraṅga is calling, "Wake up, sleeping souls! Wake up, sleeping souls! How long will you sleep in the lap of the witch called Maya?"]

bhajibo boliya ese samsara-bhitare
bhuliya rohile tumi avidyara bhare

["You have forgotten the way of devotional service and are lost in the world of birth and death."]

enechi ausadhi maya nasibaro lagi'
hari-nama maha-mantra lao tumi magi'

["I have brought the medicine that will wipe out the dissease of illusion from which you are suffering. Take this maha-mantra-]

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare

[My dear Lord, and the spiritual energy of the Lord, kindly engage me in Your service. I am now embarrassed with this material service. Please engage me in Your service.]

sei hari-nama-mantra loilo magiya
