Prayer to One's Beloved Lord

Srila Prabhupada: Why he goes so far? That is nice?

hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! hari bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! hari bifale janama goṅainu
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
janiya suniya bisa khainu
janiya suniya bisa khainu
janiya suniya bisa
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
janiya suniya bisa khainu

hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
janiya suniya bisa khainu
janiya suniya bisa khainu
hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu

[O Lord Hari, I have spent my life uselessly. Having obtained a human birth and having not worshiped Radha and Krsna, I have knowingly drunk poison.]

golokera prema-dhana, hari-nama-saṅkirtana,
golokera prema-dhana, hari-nama-saṅkirtana,
golokera prema-dhana, hari-nama-saṅkirtana,
rati na janmilo kene tay
rati na janmilo kene tay
bisaya-bisanale, diba-nisi hiya jvale
taribare na koinu upay
bisaya-bisanale, diba-nisi hiya jvale
taribare na koinu upay

[The treasure of divine love in Goloka Vrndavana has descended as the congregational chanting of Lord Hari's holy names. Why did my attraction for that chanting never come about? Day and night my heart burns from the fire of the poison of worldliness, and I have not taken the means to relieve it.]

hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
janiya suniya bisa khainu
hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu

brajendra-nandana jei, saci-suta hoilo sei,
brajendra-nandana jei, saci-suta hoilo sei,
brajendra-nandana jei, saci-suta hoilo sei,
brajendra-nandana jei, saci-suta hoilo sei,
balarama hoilo nitai
balarama hoilo nitai
papi-tapi yata chilo, hari-name uddharilo,
tara saksi jagai madhai
papi-tapi yata chilo, hari-name uddharilo,
tara saksi jagai madhai

[Lord Krsna, who is the son of the King of Vraja, became the son of Saci (Lord Caitanya), and Balarama became Nitai. The holy name delivered all those souls who were lowly and wretched. The two sinners Jagai and Madhai are evidence of this.]

hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
janiya suniya bisa khainu
janiya suniya bisa

ha ha prabhu nanda-suta, vrsabhanu-suta-juta,
ha ha prabhu nanda-suta,
ha ha prabhu nanda-suta, vrsabhanu-suta-juta,

narottama-dasa koy, na theliho raṅga pay,
toma bine ke ache amara
narottama-dasa koy, na theliho raṅga pay,
toma bine ke ache amara
narottama-dasa koy, na theliho raṅga pay,
toma bine ke ache amara

[O Lord Krsna, son of Nanda, accompanied by the daughter of Vrsabhanu, please be merciful to me now. Narottama dasa says, "O Lord, please do not push me away from Your reddish lotus feet, for who is my beloved except for You?"]

hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! bifale
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
manusya-jivana paiya, radha-krsna na bhajiya,
janiya suniya bisa
janiya suniya bisa khainu
hari hari! bifale janama goṅainu
hari hari! bifale janama
