Bano Dav Tero Bain Man Le Tu Mero - Shri Lal Balbir, Vrindavan Shatak (66)

(Kavitt)
Bano Dav Tero Bain Man Le Tu Mero,
Sukh Paay Hai Ghanerau Neh Kijey Rasikan Mein. [1]
Raj Ang Dharo Shayama Shyam Kau Ucharo,
Jag Sees Chaar Daaro Sada Bichro Latan Mein. [2]
'Lal Balbir' Haro Maya Mada Moh Droh,
Poh Man Ab To Kishori Ke Charan Mein. [3]
Aur Pharphand Jete Chodh De Jagat Ke Te,
Sadan Hi Mahan Hvai Ke Bas Vrindavan Mein. [4]

- Shri Lal Balbir Ji, Braj Binod, Vrindavan Shatak (66)

O mind, listen to my analysis: you will receive eternal happiness (bliss) only when you love the association of the rasik saints (the dear devotees of Śrī Rādhā). [1]

Put the dust of Vṛndāvan Dhām upon your limbs, chant “Śyāma Śyām” constantly, reject the mundane gratification of this material world, and ramble around the bowers and creepers of Vṛndāvan. [2]

Śrī Lal Balbir says that, O mind, you have been sleeping in the stupor of ignorance since eternity, badly surrounded by lust, anger, greed, false pride, and affection, etc. Now, rejecting all material tribulations, engage your mind exclusively in the lotus feet of Śrī Kiśorījī (Rādhā) and surrender to Her at least once. [3]

Do not trap your mind in the unbearable shackles of the delusion caused by māyā; rather, dwell in Vṛndāvan in the intoxication of love, and drink the nectar of Vṛndāvan incessantly. [4]
