hari he
śuno he madhu-mathana, mama eka vijñāpana
viśeṣa kariyā bali āmi
tomāra sevātvā mama, svakīyā vaibhavottama
āmi dāsa tumi mora svāmī
O Hari! O Madhu-mathana, please hear one submission from me. I speak this with particular emphasis: service to You is my greatest treasure. I am Your servant and You are my master.

se-vaibhava-bahirbhūta, haite haile he acyuta
kṣaṇa-mātra sahite nā pāri
deha prāṇa sukha āśā, ātma prati bhalavāsā
sarva-tyāga karite vicāri
O Acyuta! If I should fall outside that treasure, I could not endure it even for a moment. Therefore I have resolved to give up everything – attachment to body, life, hopes for happiness, and affection for myself.

e saba yāuka nāśa, śata-vāra śrīnivāsa
tabu thāku dāsatva tomāra
e bhaktivinoda kaya, kṛṣṇa-dāsa jīva haya
dāsya vinā kibā āche āra
O Śrīnivāsa! Let all these things perish a hundred times over, yet let my servitude to You remain. Bhaktivinoda says – “The jīva is the servant of Kṛṣṇa; apart from servitude, what else is there?”
