Nehin Ki Gati Janat Bhaakhi - Shri Kishori Ali Ji, Ashtayam Pratham (36)

Nehin Ki Gati Janat Bhaakhi.
Jyon Ganga Bich Paryau Papiha, Swati-Boond Bin Aur Na Chaakhi. [1]
Jal Bin Mein, Meen, Palak Nahin Jeevai, Jo Kou Chahau Pay Mein Raakhi.
Chandra Chandrika Bin Nahin Nirakhat, Pragat Chakor Jagat Mein Saakhi. [2]
Shrivan Taji Tyau Chain Na Paavai, Rasikan Lobh Dikhaavau Laakhi.
‘Ali Kishori’ Piya Gori Hit, Prem Vivas Marjada Naakhi. [3]

- Shri Kishori Ali Ji, Ashtayam Pratham (36)

The mysterious nature of love is known only to those who truly experience it, much like the 'papiha' bird in the Ganges yearns only for the raindrops of a dark cloud of ‘Swati Nakshatra’, rejecting the sacred waters of Ganga itself. [1]

Just as a fish cannot live without water, no matter what other liquid it is placed in, and as the well-known saying goes, 'chakor' bird (the Greek partridge) gazes nowhere else but at the rays of the moon. [2]

The Rasikas (connoisseurs of divine love) cannot find peace anywhere but in Vrindavan, no matter how many temptations are offered to them. Sri Kishori Ali explains, “Such lovers have forever forsaken all societal boundaries, captivated by the love of the divine couple Sri Radha Krishna of dark and fair complexion.” [3]
