ऐ मेरे गुरुदेव करुणा सिंधु करुणा कीजिये  I
हूँ अधम आधीन अशरण , अब शरण में लीजिये I

ऐ मेरे गुरुदेव करुणा सिंधु करुणा कीजिये  I
हूँ अधम आधीन अशरण , अब शरण में लीजिये I

ऐ मेरे गुरुदेव करुणा सिंधु करुणा कीजिये  I

खा रहा गोते हूँ मैं , भवसिंधु के मंझधार में  I
आसरा है दूसरा कोई न अब संसार में I

ऐ मेरे गुरुदेव करुणा सिंधु करुणा कीजिये  I

O my Gurudev, Ocean of Compassion, please cast your grace on me.
I am unworthy, dependent, and without shelter. Now please grant me refuge.

I am drowning in the middle of this ocean of mundane existence.
I have no one else in this world to help me but you.

I am wanting in sadhana-no japa¹ no tapa² - and I have no knowledge.
What is left in me is only shamelessness and pride.
