(1)

karma phale ase saba nana vesa dhari

vesete majiya thake bhuliya sri hari

 

(2)

ataeva maya tare deya bahu duḥkha

duḥkhe habuḍubu tabu tahe mane sukha

 

(3)

cira rogi duḥkha bhogi sayyate suiya

bhalo achi aja kohe hasiya hasiya

 

(4)

hasi pay tar “bhalo thakara” kathay

maya baddha jivera bhalo ei bhave hoy

 

1) By the fruits of action, all souls come down and adopt a body. Immersed in that dress of the body, they forget Sri Hari.

 

2) Therefore, illusion give them great misery and suffering. As they are immersed and resubmerged in this misery, they think it is happiness.

 

3) A chronic patient suffering great pain lies upon his bed laughs and smiles, “I am doing well, today!”

 

4) I get amused by their “I’m doing well” talk. For the illusion-bound spirit soul, this is what “fine” means to them.
