(1)

mere man mandir meń ek bār tum ā jāo giridhāri

giridhāri banavāri

mana-mohan kuñjavihāri

pyāre ā jāo giridhāri

(2)

bahut bār he ter lagāī

karuṇā nainana meń gir āī

ye roya ek duhkhiyāri

pyāre ā jāo giridhāri

(3)

māg johat ańkhiyāń pathrāī

dar dar par māyā ṭakarāī

ye dekho daśā hamāri

pyāre ā jāo giridhāri

(4)

thoḍi kṛpā idhar barsāo

prem būnd pyāse ko pāo

meń āyā ek bhīkhāri

pyāre ā jāo giridhāri

(5)

bhaińṭ nahiń meń kuch bhī lāyā

khāli nath tere dar āyā

meń terā prem pujāri

pyāre ā jāo giridhāri

(6)

pyār karo chāhe ṭhukarā do

pās bulāo dūr bhagā do

meń sab vidhī śarana tihari

pyāre ā jāo giridhāri

TRANSLATION

1) O Giridhari! I am begging You to enter, just once, into the temple of my mind. O Giridhari, O Banavari, You who reside in the groves of Vrindavan and attract our minds towards You. O beloved Giridhari, please come to me.

2) So many times have I called out to You with eyes over-flowing with tears. This most unhappy person is pleading before You. So please, O beloved Giridhari, please come to me.

3) Simply waiting for You my eyes have become weary. Maya is attacking me at every step. Just see my pitiable condition, O beloved Giridhari, and please come to me.

4) Please shower some of Your mercy here also. Being extremely thirsty, let me drink just a drop of your love. I am nothing but a beggar, begging from you. O beloved Giridhari, please come to me.

5) I have brought You no gifts, my Lord, and have come empty-handed at Your doorstep. I worship You with my love, so O beloved Giridhari, please come to me.

6) You are free to love me or reject me. You may call me near or You may send me away. In any condition of life, I am a soul surrendered unto You, please, O beloved Giridhari, please come to me.
