hari he
ohe prabhu dayāmaya, tomāra caraṇa-dvaya
śruti-śiropari śobhā pāya
guru-jana-śire punaḥ, śobhā pāya śata-guṇa
dekhi āmāra parāṇa juḍāya
O Hari! Your two feet shine above the heads of the śrutis. Again, adorning the heads of the gurus, their beauty increases a hundredfold. Seeing this, my heart is soothed.

jīva manoratha-patha, tāṅhi saba anugata
jīva-vāñchā-kalpa-taru yathā
jīvera se kula-dhana, ati-pūjya sanātana
jīvera carama gati tathā
The paths of the jīvas’ desires all follow them, for they are like a wish-fulfilling tree for the jīvas’ aspirations. They are the treasured wealth of the jīvas’ lineage, eternally most worshipable, and they are also the ultimate destination of the jīva.

kamalākṣa-pada-dvaya, parama ānanda-maya
niṣkapaṭa e sebiyā satata
e bhaktivinoda cāya, satata tuṣite tāya
bhakta-janera ha’ye anugata
The two feet of the lotus-eyed Lord are full of supreme bliss. Serving them constantly with sincerity, this Bhaktivinoda desires always to please them by becoming a follower of the devotees.
