hari he! arthera sañcaye, viṣaya-prayāse, āno-kathā-prajalpane āno-adhikāra, niyama āgrahe, asat-saṅga-saṁghaṭane
Word for word
hari–Lord; he!–oh!; arthera–of wealth; saṣchaye–in accumulating; viṣaya– for mundane ends; prayāse (udyame)–in endeavour; āna (bāje)–other (unnecessary); kathā (kṛṣṇa-kathā vyātīta anya-kathā)–talks (all talks other than those which relate to Kṛṣṇa); prajalpane (vṛthā vākya-vyaye)–in prattle (vain use of words); āna–for other; adhikāra–levels of qualification; niyama– prescriptions and prohibitions
Translation

O Lord! I have remained immersed in the defects of over-accumulating wealth, endeavouring for worldly ends, prattling about topics unrelated to You, acting in accordance with guidelines meant for others and disregarding guidelines meant for myself, associating with non-devotees, and being fickle-minded.
