hari hari! bifale janama goṅāinu manuṣya-janama pāiyā, rādhā-kṛṣṇa nā bhajiyā, jāniyā śuniyā biṣa khāinu
Word for word
hari hari!—O Lord Hari!; biphale—uselessly; janama goṅāinu—I have spent my life; manuṣya-janama pāiyā—having obtained a human birth; rādhā-kṛṣṇa—Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa; nā bhajiyā—having not worshiped; jāniyā śuniyā—even after knowing and hearing about it; viṣa khāinu—I have drunk poison
Translation

O Lord Hari, I have wasted my life. Although I have taken this rare human birth, I have not served Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, and thus I have knowingly drunk poison.

golokera prema-dhana, hari-nāma-saṅkīrtana, rati nā janmilo kene tāy saṁsāra-biṣānale, dibā-niśi hiyā jwale, jurāite nā koinu upāy
Word for word
golokera—of Goloka Vṛndāvana; prema-dhana—the treasure of divine love; hari-nāma-saṅkīrtana—the congregational chanting of Lord Hari's holy names; rati—my attraction; nā janmilo—never came about; kene—why?; tāy—for that; saṁsāra-viṣānale—in the fire of the poison of worldliness; divā-niśi—day and night; hiyā jvale—my heart burns; juḍāite—to relieve it; nā koinu upāy—I have not taken the means
Translation

The treasure of divine love in Goloka Vṛndāvana has descended as the congregational chanting of Lord Hari’s holy names. Why did my attraction for that chanting never come about? Day and night my heart burns in the fire of the poison of worldliness, and I have not accepted the means for relieving it.
