रसगंगाधर - हरिनाम


किं मित्रमंते सुकृतं न लोकाः
    किं ध्येयमीशस्य पदं न शोकाः ।
किं काम्यमव्याजसुखं न भोगाः
    किं जल्पनीयं हरिनाम नान्यत् ॥


- रसगंगाधर


kim mitramante sukRutam na lokAH
    kim dhyeyam Ishasya padam na shokAH ।
kim kAmyam avyAja sukham na bhogAH
    kim jalpanIyam harinAma nAnyat ॥

Who is a friend at the end? Your own deeds, not the entire world. Who should be remembered? the foot of the lord, not the miseries. What should be desired? Pure happiness of salvation, not sensory pleasures. What should be spoken? Only the name of Hari (God), not anything else.
