ACYUTĀNANDA SVĀMĪ: vidyāra vilāse, kāṭāinu kāla,
parama sāhase āmi tomāra caraṇa, nā bhajinu kabhu,
ekhona śaraṇa tumi poḍite poḍite, bharasā bārilo,
jñāne gati habe māni' se āśā biphala, se jñāna durbala,
se jñāna ajñāna jāni jaḍa-vidyā jata, māyāra vaibhava,
tomāra bhajane bādhā moha janamiyā, anitya saṁsāre,
jīvake koraye gādhā sei gādhā ho'ye, saṁsārera bojhā,
bahinu aneka kāla bārdhakye ekhona, śaktira abhāve,
kichu nāhi lāge bhālo jīvana jātanā, hoilo ekhona,
se vidyā avidyā bhelo avidyāra jwālā, ghaṭilo biṣama,
se vidyā hoilo śelo tomāra caraṇa, binā kichu dhana,
saṁsāre nā āche āra bhakativinoda, jaḍa-vidyā chāḍi,'
tuwā pada kore sāra vidyāra vilāse, kāṭāinu kāla,
parama sāhase āmi (by Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura)
