E Ghora Samsare
Chapter 7
e ghora
saṁsāre paḍiyā mānava na
pāyā duḥkher śeṣa sādhu-saṅga
kori hari bhaja jadi tabe anta
hay kleśa
" Fallen into the horrible material world, a person suffers without end. Still, of he associates with devotees and worships Lord Hari, a person will make his sufferings come to an end.
biṣaya
anale jwāliche hṛdaya anale
baḍe anal aparādha
chādi' laya kṛṣṇa-nāma anale
paḍāye jal
The heart burns in the fire of sense gratification. The fire burns more and more. Avoiding offenses, chant the holy names of Lord Krsna. That will pour water on the fire.
nitāi
caitanya caraṇa-kamale āśraya
laila jei kalidāsa
bole jībane marane āmār
āśraya sei
He who has taken shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityananda is my shelter in life and death. Thus says Kalidasa."
