mora jihvā — vīṇā-yantra, tumi — vīṇā-dhārī
tomāra mane yei uṭhe, tāhāi uccāri

 mora jihvā - my tongue; vīṇā-yantra - a stringed instrument; tumi - You; vīṇā-dhārī - the player of the stringed instrument; tomāra mane - in Your mind; yei uṭhe - whatever arises; tāhāi - that; uccāri - I vibrate.

“My dear Lord, my tongue is just like a stringed instrument, and You are its player. Therefore I simply vibrate whatever arises in Your mind.”
