(refrain)
caraṇa kamal bandauń hari rāī

bahiro sunai mūka puni bolai
rańka calai sira chatra

TRANSLATION
Refrain: I offer prayer
unto the lotus feet of the worshipful Lord Hari.
1-2) By His mercy, a lame
person crosses mountains, a blind person sees everything, a deaf person hears,
a dumb person again speaks, and even a poor person walks with a servant holding
an umbrella over his head.
3) The Lord of Sura Dasa is full of compassion.
Therefore, I offer my obeisances unto His lotus feet,
again and again.
