Manus Janam Payau Bas Vanraj Ju Kau,
Chatur Kahay Sis Sadhun Kaun Nayau Na. [1]
Dhani Hu Kahayau Dhan Diyau Shrigupalaju Ne,
Dan Karibe Kaun Kar Unchau Lai Uthayau Na . [2]
‘Lal Balabir’ Chay Rahyau Jag Jalan Mein,
Aire Matihin Toy Naik Soch Ayau Na. [3]
Joi Kam Ayau Soi Soi Bisrayau Hay,
Baithi Ke Nikunjan Mein Radha Gun Gayau Na. [4]
- Shri Lal Balbir, Braj Binod, Mana Shiksha (9)
If one has obtained this precious human life, one should reside in Vṛndāvan, the crest jewel among all the forests; what kind of wise person is he if he doesn’t offer respectful obeisances to all the saints? [1]
One who is wealthy must donate for the service of Lord Kṛṣṇa, the protector of cows; what kind of wealthy person is he if he doesn’t use his hands for donation? [2]
O, foolish one! Why are you not thinking about it? Why are you sleeping in the stupor of ignorance of this material world? [3]
You have forgotten the one (Śrī Rādhā) who has always helped you, who is such a genuine, compassionate personality. Why are you not singing Her name “Rādhā” and chanting Her glories unceasingly, sitting in the Nikuñjas? [4]
