Jiv Jago

from Jiv Jago by Akari Tamura

/

about

The first song is "Jiv Jago" meaning "wake up sleeping souls!" - a sweet Bengali song that we sing in the morning as Bhakti practice.

lyrics

1)
jiv jago, jiv jago, gauracanda bole
kota nidra jao maya-pisacira kole

(2)
bhajibo boliya ese samsara-bhitare
bhuliya rohile tumi avidyara bhare

(3)
tomare loite ami hoinu avatara
ami bina bandhu ara ke ache tomara

(4)
enechi aushadhi maya nasibaro lagi’
hari-nama maha-mantra lao tumi magi’

(5)
bhakativinoda prabhu-carane pariya
sei hari-nama-mantra loilo magiya

---------------------
TRANSLATION

1) Lord Gauranga is calling, "Wake up, sleeping souls! Wake up, sleeping souls! How long will you sleep in
the lap of the witch called Maya?

2) You have forgotten the way of devotional service and are lost in the world of birth and death.

3) I have descended just to save you; other than Myself you have no friend in this world.

4) I have brought the medicine that will wipe out the disease of illusion from which you are suffering. Take
this maha-mantra—Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/Hare Rama, Hare Rama Rama Rama,
Hare Hare."

5) Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura says: "I fall at the Lord’s feet, having taken this maha-mantra."


GAURA HARI!
