Hare Krishna dear Gurumahārāja,
Please accept my humble obeisances unto your lotus feets,
Jaya Śrīla Prabhupāda...
Dear Gurumaharaj,
Please accept this small offering from this patīta-dāsī. Though I am not yet initiated, but I have accepted you as my Guru Mahārāja from my heart. I am studying in class 12 in this material body and conditions of my house are not favourable for meeting you and take your blessings. But he gurudev, please accept my humble obeisances and surrender unto your lotus feets from my heart. Please accept this small offering from my side for you he gurudev. All glories to my śikṣā-guru because of whom I have written this song as an offering at your lotus feets.
