Tuṅhu Doyā Sāgora Tārayite Prāṇī
O Supreme Lord, O ocean of mercy, to deliver the living entities, You teach them about Your many holy names.
O Lord, Your holy name is like a cintāmaṇi jewel. O Lord, You mercifully give Your holy name to the whole wolrd.
O Lord, You are very kind and generous. Still, I am an unlucky fool.
I never fell in love with Your holy name. That is why Bhaktivinoda's heart is overcome with grief.
