so ’ham tavanghry-upagato ’smy asatam durapam

 tac capy aham bhavad-anugraha isa manye

pumso bhaved yarhi samsaranapavargas

 tvayy abja-nabha sad-upasanaya matih syat

 

Translation: 

 

Being thus fallen, I am approaching Your feet for shelter, O Lord, because although the impure can never attain Your feet, I think it is nevertheless possible by Your mercy. Only when one’s material life has ceased, O lotus-naveled Lord, can one develop consciousness of You by serving Your pure devotees.
