ध्यान घनश्याम का दीवाना बना देता है..
बाघे दुनिया को भी वीराना देता है..
बिहार सांवरे सरकार तेरा इस दिल को..
कभी गोकुल कभी बरसाना बना देता है..
बुत परस्ती का कड़ा शौक इसे कहते हैं..
... सर जहां झुकता है, बुतखाना बना देता है..
प्रेम प्याले जो पियें भर के, वो अपनी जानें
हम को इक बूँद ही मस्ताना बना देता है..

तेरा नाम सुनके दाता दर पर फकीर आया

तेरा नाम सुनके दाता दर पर फकीर आया,
उस नाम के मुताबीक कर दो करम खुदाया
सुनते हैं जो भी आया भर भर के झोली पाया.
पर यह फकीर मौला झोली न संग लाया
गर खाली हाथ लौटा तो कान खोल कर सुन,
हो जायेगा यहां से तेरे नाम का सफाया
सामान दे या ना दे मर्जी तेरी हे रहवर,
झोली तो दे दे दाता ठोकर बहुत हे खाया
है देर तेरे घर में अन्धेर तो नहीं हैं,
तेरे आशिकों ने मुझको यह राज है बताया

- JAGADGURU SHREE KRIPALUJI MAHARAJ

Ik nazar unko dekha gazab ho gaya

Ik nazar unko dekha gazab ho gaya,
hale dil ab to mera ajab ho gaya.
A devotee says, “I looked at Krishna once and a sweet, loving disaster happened. I lost my heart to Him with that glance. Now my heart and mind are acting very strangely.”
Deeno duniya ki daulat sanjoi thee jo,
lut gayi pal mein ya rab gazab ho gaya.

Tan gaya man gaya akla hairan hai,
darde dil badh raha hai gazab ho gaya.

Ve taras bhi na khaye mere hal par,
phir na aye dubara gazab ho gaya.

Aisi pila de saki, ban jaye tu hamara

Aisi pila de saki, ban jaye tu hamara,
khvahish nahin hai mujha ko, main bhi banun tumhara.
Oh, Saki! Make me so intoxicated with the divine wine of Your love that I will accept You as mine, without being concerned if You have accepted me or not.
Nazaron se mey ka pyala aisa pila khudara,
nazaron mey bas rahe ik, tera hi bas nazara.
My Lord! Intoxicate me with Your grace-filled glance in such a way that I will be able to see You and only You.
Hai khel ik nazar ka, ghatana hai kya tumhara,
kar do karam vo hamdam, bhulun jahan sara.
For You, it is only a matter of a glance; what will You lose by doing this? Grace me so that I may forget the entire world.
Baithey hain ta kayamat, dar pe laga ke nara,
hai yah kripalu nara, bas ek tu hamara.
Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj says in the words of a devotee, “I will sit at your doorstep til the end of time, loudly proclaiming, You alone are mine! You alone are mine!“

Lakhon mahafil jahan men yun to, teri mahafil si mehfil nahin hai.

Lakhon mahafil jahan men yun to, teri mahafil si mehfil nahin hai.
Oh my beloved Krishna! There are thousands of gatherings the world over, but none compares with Yours.
Swarg samrat ya ho chakar, tere dar ye hai darza barabar.
Whether the king of the celestial abodes, Indra, or a pauper, everyone is treated equally by You.
Teri hasti ko ho jisne jana, koi alam men akil nahin hai.
The one who knows the truth of Your divine personality, can’t find happiness from anyone or anything but You.
Dar badar kha ke thokar jo thak kar, aa gaya gir koi tere dar par.
If some exhausted soul who has been rotating in the 8.4 million species of life comes knocking at Your door,
Tune nazron se jo ras pilaya, vo batane ke kabil nahin hai,
au chupane ke kabil nahin hai.
You give him the sweet nectar of Your divine glance to drink, and this nectar is impossible to explain in words, yet its effects are impossible to hide from the eyes of the world.
Tum jo kahate ho tum ho hamare, jor mujh se hi tu nate sare.
You say that You alone are ours and that we should form all our relationships only with You.
Jan kar bhi jo nata na jore, uske manind jahin nahin hai.
There is no bigger fool than the one who knows this and still fails to love You.
Jite marte jo teri lagan men, jalte rahate virah ki agan men.
Those who live and die for You, and who remain in the fire of feeling separation from You…
Hai bharosa tera he Murari, tu dayalu hai katin nahin hai.
Oh, Krishna, they have full faith that You are merciful, never merciless.
Tere ras ka laga chaska jis ko, lagta Baikunth phika sa us ko.
He who becomes addicted to Your divine love nectar, finds even God’s almighty Vaikunth abode bland and tasteless in comparison.
Dub kar koi bahar na aya, is men bhamvaren hain sahil nahin hai.
He who drowns in the ocean of Your divine love never again surfaces,
for there is a whirlpool in this ocean and no shore.
Prem men hai sada dena dena, sochana bhi nahin kuch hai lena.
In love there is only the desire to give and give; a true lover never thinks of taking anything.
Lena vala bara bhola bhala, Braj ke rasikon men samil nahin hai.
One who desires something from the Beloved is ignorant, and is certainly not a Rasik Saint of Braj.
Man le unko tu sirf apana, sikh le yad men bas tarapana.
The only thing you have to do is accept Him as yours and learn to long for Him.
Ve laga lenge sine se tujh ko, dil men baithe hain gafil nahin hain.
He will embrace You. He is seated in your heart and noting your thoughts and feelings.
Tu pila de jo ik bund ras ki, kya kami hai tere pas ras ki.
Give me just a drop of Your divine nectar to drink. Will your treasure decrease if you give me this much?
Phir jo chore koi tera picha, aisa jahin bhi kahin nahin hai.
After receiving Your love if a soul leaves You, there is no one as foolish as he.
Karma hai unki niskham seva, dharma hai unki iccha men iccha.
Serving Him selflessly is true action, and being happy in His happiness is true dharma.
Saump do in ke hathon men dori, ye ‘Kripalu’ hain tang dil hahin hai.
Put the reins of your life in His hands. After all, He is not a miser. He is ‘Kripalu’ (the unconditional and unlimited giver of divine grace).

Teri meharbani ka hai bojha itna

Teri meharbani ka hai bojha itna,
ki main to uthane ke kabil nahin hun.
My Lord, You have bestowed so much grace on me,
that I am unable to lift this heavy load.

Main aa to gaya hun magar janta hun,
tere dar pe ane ke kabin hahin hun.
I have come to You fully knowing
that I am not worthy of coming to You.

Zamane ki chahat men khud ko bhulaya,
tera nam haragiz zuban pai na lava.
My strong desire for the world made me forget myself
and my lips never uttered Your name.

Khatavar hun main gunahagar hun main,
tumhen muh kikhane ke kabin nahin hun.
I am an offender and sinner;
I am not worthy of showing my face to You.

Tumhin ne ata ki mujhe zindgani,
magar teri mahima main ne na jani.
You gave me life, but I did not glorify You in life.

Karazdar teri daya ka hun itna,
ki karza chukane ke kabil nahin hun.
I am so indebted to you for Your grace,
that I am unable to repay my debt.

Ye mana ki data hai tu kul jahan ka,
magar jholi age phailaun main kaise.
I know You are the supreme Provider,
yet how can I ask You for anything?

Jo pahale diya vo bhi kuch kam nahin hain,
usi ko nibhane ke kabil nahin hun.
What you have given me already,
I am not able to contain.

Tamanna yahi hai ki sir ko jhuka dun,
tera deed ik bar dil men main pa lun.
My only desire now is to bow my head
and see You in my heart.

Siva dil ke tukron ke ai mere data,
kuch bhi charhane ke kabil naihin hun.
Oh, my Lord! Except for my heart,
I have nothing to offer You.

भावार्थ :- आज श्री वृषभानु रजा के घर में श्री राधिकाजी का जन्म हुआ हे, जिसके उपललख्य में थिरकते हुए ग्वालों के झुण्ड एवं नृत्य करती हुई बरजांगनाओं की वृषभानु के महल में बहुत बड़ी भीड़ हो गई हे | एवं काह्रों और बधाई गान की ही तुमुल दवानी हो रही हे | समस्त ब्रजवासी इतने प्रेम-विभोर हो गए हैं की न तो कोई किसी से कुछ कहता ही हे और न तो कोई किसी से कुछ पूछता ही हे | कृति मईया मोतियों से भरी हुई थालियों को दोनों हाथों से लुटा रही हे फिर भी, 'क्रिअप्लू' कहते हैं की कोई लुटने वाला नहीं हे क्योंकि समस्त जनता एकमात्र श्री वृषभानु नन्दिनी के दर्शन की ही भूखी हे |
