Boro Krpa Koile Krsna

TRANSLATION

1) My dear Lord Krishna, You are so kind upon this useless soul, but I do not know why You have brought me
here. Now You can do whatever You
like with me.

2) But I guess You have some business here, otherwise why would You bring me to this terrible place?

3) Most of the population here is covered by the material modes of ignorance and passion. Absorbed in material
life, they think themselves very happy and satisfied, and therefore they have no taste for the transcendental message
of Vasudeva. I do not know how they will be able to understand it.

4) But I know Your causeless mercy can make everything possible because You are the most expert mystic.

5) How will they understand the mellows of devotional service? O Lord, I am simply praying for Your mercy so that
I will be able to convince them about Your message.

6) All living entities have come under the control of the illusory energy by Your will, and therefore, if You like,
by Your will they can also be released
from the clutches of illusion.

7) I wish that You may deliver them. Therefore if You so desire their deliverance, then only will they be able
to understand Your message.

8) The words of Srimad-Bhagavatam are Your incarnation, and if a sober person repeatedly receives it with
submissive aural reception, then he will be able to understand Your message.

9) It is said in the Srimad-Bhagavatam (1.2.17-21):
"Sri Krishna, the Personality of Godhead, who is the Paramatma [Supersoul] in everyone’s heart and the benefactor
of the truthful devotee, cleanses desire for material enjoyment from the heart of the devotee who has developed
the urge to hear His messages, which are in themselves virtuous when properly heard and chanted. By
regular attendance in classes on the Bhagavatam and by rendering of service to the pure devotee, all that
is troublesome to the heart is almost completely destroyed, and loving service unto the Personality of Godhead, who
is praised with transcendental songs, is established as an irrevocable fact. As soon as irrevocable loving service
is established in the heart, the effects of nature’s modes of passion and ignorance, such as lust, desire and
hankering, disappear from the heart. Then the devotee is established in goodness, and he becomes completely
happy. Thus established in the mode of unalloyed goodness, the man whose mind has been enlivened by contact
with devotional service to the
Lord gains positive scientific knowledge of the Personality of Godhead in the stage of liberation from all
material association. Thus the knot in the
heart is pierced, and all misgivings are cut to pieces. The chain of fruitive actions is terminated when one sees the
self as master."

10) He will become liberated from the influence of the modes of ignorance and passion and thus all
inauspicious things accumulated in the core of the
heart will disappear.

11) How will I make them understand this message of Krishna consciousness? I am very unfortunate, unqualified
and the most fallen. Therefore I am seeking Your benediction so that I can convince them, for I am powerless to do
so on my own.

12) Somehow or other, O Lord, You have brought me here to speak about You. Now, my Lord, it is up to You to
make me a success or failure as You
like.

13) O spiritual master of all the worlds! I can simply repeat Your message, so if You like You can make my power
of speaking suitable for their understanding.

14) Only by Your causeless mercy will my words become pure. I am sure that when this transcendental
message penetrates their hearts they will certainly feel engladdened and thus become liberated from all
unhappy conditions of life.

15) O Lord, I am just like a puppet in Your hands. So if You have brought me here to dance, then make me
dance, make me dance, O Lord, make
me dance as You like.

16) I have no devotion, nor do I have any knowledge, but I have strong faith in the holy name of Krsna. I have
been designated as Bhaktivedanta, and now, if You like, You can fulfill the real purport of Bhaktivedanta.
