vaisnaba thakura, doyara sagara, e dase koruna kori'
diya pada-chaya, sodho he amayai, tomara carana dhori
chaya bega domi, chaya dosa sodhi, chaya guna deho' dase
chaya sat-sanga, deho' he amare, boshechi sangera ase
ekaki amara, nahi paya bala, hari-nama-sankirtane
tumi krpa kori: sraddha-bindu diya, deho' krsna-nama-dhane
krsna se tomara, krsna dite paro, tomara sakati ache
ami to' kangala, 'krsna 'krsna 'boli', dhai tava pache pache
O venerable Vaisnava. O ocean of mercy, be merciful unto your servant. Give me the shade of your lotus feet and purify me. I hold on to your lotus feet.
Teach me to control my six passions; rectify my six faults, bestow upon me the six qualities, and offer unto me the six kinds of holy association.
I do not find the strength to carry on alone the sankirtana of the holy nameof Hari. Please bless me by giving me just one drop of faith with which to obtain the great treasure of the holy name of Krsna.
Krsna is yours; you have the power to give Him to me. I am simply running behind you shouting, "Krsna! Krsna!" *The six passions are those pertaining to speach, the mind, anger, the tongue, the stomach and the genitals. The six faults are overeating, attachment to material things, inability to follow vaisnava etiquit, sense gratification, useless idle talk, and impure habits. The six positive qualities are enthusiasm in practicing devotion, firm faith in the devotional process, a strong desire to attain prema-bhakti, a favorable service attitude, avoidance of non-devotees, and a real appreciation of genuine devotees. The six methods of association are to go to an assembly of sadhus, to invite saintly persons into one's home, to discuss and hear devotional topics, to take the maha-prasada of great realized souls and to offer maha-prasada to sadhus.
