Heno Dusta Karma Nai

Yamuna Bhavavali Song 9

1

hari he heno duṣṭa karma nāi jaha
āmi kori nāi sahasra sahasra-bāra
hori sei saba-karma-phala peye
abasara bala āmāya piśiche jantropori

Oh my dear Lord Hari! There are not sinful activities which I have not performed thousands upon thousands of times! And by the fruits of all these sinful actions, I have become robbed of all strength, being helplessly taken for an excruciatingly painful ride on the machine of this material world.

2

gati nāhi dekhi āra kānde hari
anibāra tomāra agrete ebe āmi ja
' tomāra hoya mane daṇḍa deo
akiñcane tumi mora daṇḍa-dhara swāmī

Seeing no other hope for deliverance in sight, I am now continuously crying before You, my Lord. Please punish Your insignificant servant as You see befitting, for You are my Lord and ruling Master.

3

kleśa-bhoga bhāgye jata bhoga mora
hao tata kintu eka mama nibedana
je je daśā bhoga āmi āmāke nā chāḍo
swāmī bhaktibinodera prāṇa-dhana

Whatever difficulty my destiny prescribes for me, I will gladly undergo, but I have just one appeal to make to You. My dear Lord, no matter what condition I must undergo, please never give me up, for You are the only treasure of Bhaktivinoda's life.
