(Sawaiya)
Dikhana Na Tha Nit Neh Naya,
Hamein Prem Ke Phand Phansana Na Tha. [1]
Bin Jaage Viyog Virah Ki Vyatha,
Dil Se Dil Bhul Milana Na Tha. [2]
‘Hare Krishn’ Na Sinchana Tha To Kripa,
Anuraag Ka Bag Lagana Na Tha. [3]
Bin Daam Gulam Banana Na Tha,
Yadi Peet Ki Reet Nibhana Na Tha. [4]
- Shri Hare Krishn Ji
A devotee sarcastically says to his beloved Ṭhākur Śrī Bānke Bihārī:
O Bānke Bihārī, why did You bind me in the rope of Your love by showing ever-new love? [1]
Why have You united Your heart with mine if You wanted me to always burn in the agony of Your separation? [2]
Why have You constructed a garden of love through Your mercy if You are afraid of watering it? [3]
O Bānke Bihārī! If You are afraid of following the mode of love, then why have You made me Your sold-servant? [4]
