লক্ষ কোটি দীপে, চাঙ্দের আলোকে, না জানি কি ভেল সুখে সকল সংসার, `হরি’ বহি আর, না বোলৈ কা’রো মুখে ॥ ২৮২ ॥
लक्ष कोटि दीपे, चाङ्देर आलोके, ना जानि कि भेल सुखे सकल संसार, `हरि’ वहि आर, ना बोलै का’रो मुखे ॥ २८२ ॥
lakṣa koṭi dīpe, cāṅdera āloke, nā jāni ki bhela sukhe sakala saṃsāra, `hari’ vahi āra, nā bolai kā’ro mukhe || 282 ||
