Emona Durmati

TRANSLATION

1) A wicked mind brought me into this world, O Lord, but one of Your pure and elevated devotees
has come to bring me out.

2) He saw me so fallen and wretched, took pity, and came to me saying, “O humbled soul, please listen
to this good tiding, for it will gladden your heart.

3) Sri Krishna Caitanya has appeared in the land of Navadvipa to deliver you. He has safely
conducted many miserable souls such as you across the sea of worldly existence.

4) “To fulfill the promise of the Vedas, the son of a brahmana bearing the name Mahaprabhu of
golden complexion, has descended with His brother the avadhuta Nityananda. Together They
have overwhelmed all of Nadia with divine ecstasy.

5) “Sri Caitanya, who is Krishna Himself, the son of Nanda, has saved the world by freely distributing
His own holy name. Go also and receive your deliverance.”

6) O Lord, hearing those words, Bhaktivinoda has come weeping to the soles of Your lotus feet and
tells the story of his life.
