(Raag Kedarau)
Soi Tau Bachan Mosaun Maani
Tain Merau Laal Mohyau Ri Saanvrau.
Nav Nikunj Sukh Punj Mahal Mein
Subas Basau Yah Gaanvarau. [1]
Nav Nav Laad Ladai Laadili
Nahin Nahin Yah Braj Jaanvarau.
Shriharidas Ke Swami Syama Kunjbihari Pai
Baaraungi Maalati Bhaanvarau. [2]
- Shri Swami Haridas Ji, Kelimal (44)
The divine couple Shri Radha Krishn is seated in the Nikunj Mahal [palace of ever-new bower]. Suddenly Shri Radha, while seeing Her reflection, says [to Her reflection]:
Listen, pretty lady, accept these words of mine that you have captivated my dark beloved.
You have settled unconstrainedly in this ever-new forest of Nikunj which is the abode of all the happiness. [1]
Due to the ever-new love and affection towards His darling, He never ever goes to Braj [leaving this Nikunj forest].
I sacrifice myself to Haridas’s sovereigns Shyama [Radha] and Kunjabihari who is like white jasmine, and a black bee [hovering over jasmine]. [2]
