Teaching the Process of Full Surrender" - From Śaraṇāgati by Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura - Gold Series CD 5 Track 1

(1)

mānasa, deho, geho, jo kichu mor

arpilū tuwā pade, nanda-kiśor!

Mind, body, and family, whatever may be mine, I have surrendered at Your lotus feet, O youthful son of Nanda!

(2)

sampade vipade, jīvane-maraṇe

dāy mama gelā, tuwā o-pada baraṇe

In good fortune or in bad, in life or at death, all my difficulties have disappeared by choosing those feet of Yours as my only shelter.

(3)

mārobi rākhobiójo icchā tohārā

nitya-dāsa prati tuwā adhikārā

Slay me or protect me as You wish, for You are the master of Your eternal servant.

(4)

janmāobi moe icchā jadi tor

bhakta-gṛhe jani janma hau mor

If it is Your will that I be born again, then may it be in the home of Your devotee.

(5)

kīṭa-janma hau jathā tuwā dās

bahir-mukha brahma janme nāhi āś

May I be born again even as a worm, so long as I may remain Your devotee. I have no desire to be born as a Brahmā averse to You.

(6)

bhukti-mukti-spṛhā vihīna je bhakta

labhaite tāko saṅga anurakta

I yearn for the company of that devotee who is completely devoid of all desire for worldly enjoyment or liberation.

(7)

janaka, jananī, dayita, tanay

prabhu, guru, pati-tuhū sarva-moy

Father, mother, lover, son, Lord, preceptor, and husband; You are everything to me.

(8)

bhakativinoda kohe, śuno kāna!

rādhā-nātha! tuhū hāmāra parāṇa

Ṭhākura Bhaktivinoda says, "O Kāna, please hear me! O Lord of Rādhā, You are my life and soul!"
