ami to durjana ati sada duracar
koti koti janme mor nahiko uddhar
भावार्थI am certainly the most wicked person, always performing sinful actions. For millions and millions of births I have not been able to gain release from this predicament.
Vaishnav Bhajan
Ami To Durjana Ati Sada Duracar
Composed by Bhaktivinoda Thakura
e heno doyalu kebae jagate ache
emata pamare uddhariya la'be kache?
भावार्थWho is so merciful within this material universe as to pick such a sinner up and take me close to Himself?
suniyachi, sri-caitanya patita-pavana
ananta-pataki jane korila mocana
भावार्थBut I have heard about Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Who is known as the deliverer of the most fallen. Innumerable sinners have already been freed by Him.
emata doyar sindhu krpa bitariya
kabe uddharibe more sri-caranan diya?
भावार्थSuch an ocean of compassion He is, Who is distributing His own causeless mercy! When will He deliver me by bestowing upon me His own Divine Lotus Feet?
eibar bujha ja'be karuna tomar
jadi e pamara-jane koribe uddhar
भावार्थOh Lord! Now I will really understand the extent of Your compassion only if You are able to deliver this most sinful person.
karma nai, jnana nai, krsna-bhakti nai
tabe bolo' kirupe o sri-carana pai
भावार्थBy what means will I get those lotus feet since I am completely bereft of fruitive activities, bereft of knowledge, and bereft of any kind of devotion to Krsna?
bharasa amar matra koruna tomar
ahaituki se koruna beder bicar
भावार्थMy only hope is Your compassion, for the opinion of all the Vedas is that Your compassion is causeless.
tumi to' pavitra-pada, ami durasoy
kemone tomar pade paibo asroy?
भावार्थYou are the very abode of purity, and I am most wicked and evil-minded. So how will I attain the shelter of Your lotus feet?
kandiya kandiya bole' e patita char
patita-pavana nama prasiddha tomar
भावार्थWeeping and weeping, this fallen and most contemptible person says: "Dear Lord, all I know is that Your most celebrated name is Patita-Pavana, the deliverer of the fallen".
