Koi Kahau Kulata Kulin Akulin - Shri Dev Ji

(Kavitt)
Koi Kahau Kulata Kulin Akulin Kahau,
Kou Kahau Rankini Kalankini Kunari Haun. [1]
Kaiso Nar Lok Paralok Baralokani Men,
Lonhi Main Alok Lok Lokani Te Nyari Haun. [2]
Tan Jau Man Jau 'Dev' Gurujan Jau,
Praan Kin Jau Tek Tarati Na Tari Haun. [3]
Vrindavan Vari Banavari Ki Mukutavari,
Pit Pat Vari Vahi Surati Pai Vari Haun. [4]

- Shri Dev Ji

Let others call me immoral, noble-born or low-born, impoverished, disgraced, or a woman who has forsaken the honour and traditions of her family. Their words matter not to me in the slightest. [1]

What have I to do with this world, the world beyond, or even the highest celestial realms? I have embraced the path of divine love, a love that transcends all these worlds and remains utterly beyond the bounds of worldly conventions. [2]

The poet Dev Jī declares, “Let my body perish, my mind depart, my gurus and relatives forsake me, and even my very life come to an end. Yet nothing whatsoever can ever shake my steadfast resolve.” [3]

I surrender my all to the captivating beauty of Śrī Vṛndāvana’s Bāṅke Bihārī, the beloved Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, adorned with His beautiful crown and radiant yellow garments. [4]
