🌸 English Meaning:
In my previous birth, due to the sins I committed, I have now taken birth in a miserable condition, O Krishna.
O Ocean of Mercy, please protect me, O lotus-naveled Hari, Sri Krishna.
From the moment of birth, I have not known comfort. I suffer every day, O Krishna.
If you don’t remove this thick blanket of poverty, I will be left with only complaints, O Krishna.
For years I’ve been trapped in desires for money and have been toiling endlessly, O Krishna.
Please free me from these attachments and forgive my sins, O Krishna of eternal name.
Even close ones hesitate to touch me; they push me away, O Krishna.
Like a crying baby left in a cradle, I am lost and full of sorrow, O Krishna.
I have no father, no mother, no relatives. What is my destiny now, O Krishna?
O mountain-lifter, O Purandara Vitthala, please come and make your home in my heart, O Krishna.
Krishna… Krishna… Krishna… Krishna…
🪔 Reflection:
This heart-wrenching bhajan by Purandaradasaru is a soul’s cry for divine grace amidst worldly suffering. The singer acknowledges the karmic cause of their current condition but turns to Krishna—the symbol of eternal love and compassion—for relief and redemption. The honesty in helplessness, the deep yearning, and the spiritual surrender reflected here mirror the journeys of many seekers burdened by life’s hardships.
Despite the pain, the bhajan never loses sight of the divine. It’s a call to Krishna to not just help—but to dwell within the devotee, bringing peace where no worldly relationship or possession can. In its simplicity, this bhajan teaches us the ultimate truth: when the world fails, divine refuge never does.
Singer : Puttur Narasimha Nayak
