Bhramita Samsara Bane
Yamuna Bhavavali Song 13
hari he bhramite soṁsāra -bane kabhu
daiba-samghaṭane kona -mate kona
bhāgyabān taba pada uddeśiyā thāke
kṛtāñjali hoya eka-bāra ohe bhagabān
Oh my Lord Hari! While wandering about in the forest of this material world, some fortunate soul may be able to get a momentary glimpse of Your lotus feet just once, by some unseen influence of destiny, and he receives that visions of Your lotus feet with folded hands.
sei khaṇe tā'ra jata amaṅgala hoya
hata su-maṅgala hoya puṣṭa ati ā;
ra nāhi khaya hoya krame tā'ra
śubhodoya tā're deya sarbottama-gati
At that very moment all inauspiciousness becomes dissipated, and he very much relishes the nourishment of divine auspiciousness. This never decreases, for You gradually awaken his eternal well-being by bestowing upon such a fortunate soul the topmost goal of life.
emona doyālu tumi emona durbhāgā
āmi kabhu nā korinu paraṇāma
taba pada-padma prati nā jāne e
duṣṭa-mati bhaktibinodera pariṇāma
Thus You are such a liberal and magnanimous Lord, but I have never offered my respectful obeisances unto Your lotus feet. Therefore my wicked mentality cannot comprehend anything. This is Bhaktivinoda's resultant unfortunate position.
