[ekalaa maalaakaara aami kaahaan kaahaan yaaba ekalaa vaa kata phala paadiyaa vilaaba]
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
ekalā mālākāra āmi kāhāṅ kāhāṅ yāba ekalā vā kata phala pāḍiyā vilāba
“I am the only gardener. How many places can I go? How many fruits can I pick and distribute?

Here Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu indicates that the distribution of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra should be performed by combined forces. Although He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He laments, “How can I act alone? How can I alone pick the fruit and distribute it all over the world?” This indicates that all classes of devotees should combine to distribute the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra without consideration of the time, place or situation.

— A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
