    • mānasa, deha, geha, yo kichhu mora
    • arpilu̐ tuyā pade nanda-kiśora!
    • I have offered my mind, my body, my household, and whatever else may be mine at Your feet, O Nanda Kiśor!

    • sampade vipade jīvane-maraṇe
    • dāy mama gelā tuyā o-pada varaṇe
    • In good times and in bad, in life and in death, all my responsibility has gone away by embracing Your feet.

    • mārabi rākhabi—yo ichhā tohārā
    • nitya-dāsa prati tuyā adhikārā
    • Kill me or protect me as You wish. You have full authority over Your eternal servant.

    • janmāobi maye ichhā yadi tora
    • bhakta-gṛhe jani janma ha-u mora
    • If You desire that I take birth again, let me do so in the home of Your devotee.

    • bahir-mukha brahma-janme nāhi āśa
    • Let me be born again even as a worm, so long as I can remain Your servant. I have no desire to be born even as Brahmā if I will be averse to You.

    • I long to attain the association of devotees who are completely free from all desire for selfish enjoyment and liberation.

    • Father, mother, lover, son, Lord, Guru, and husband—You are everything to me.
