Hindi Lyrics, Sanskrit Lyrics / English Lyrics / Meaning

मेरे तो गिरधर गोपाल, दूसरो न कोई ।

जाके सिर मोर मुकुट, मेरो पति सोई ॥

Mere to Giridhar Gopal, dusro na koi
Jaake sar mor mukut, mero pati soi

Mine is only Giridhar Gopal (Krishna), and no one else.
He who wears the peacock feather crown on His head, He alone is my Lord/Husband.

कोई कहे कारो, कोई कहे गोरो लियोन हे अक्खियां को

कोई कहे हलकों, कोई कहे भरो लियोन हे तराजू टोल

Koi kahe kaaro, koi kahe goro, liyo hai ankhiyan khol
Koi kahe halko, koi kahe bhaaro, liyo hai taraju taul

Some say He is dark, some say He is fair; I have taken Him with my eyes wide open.
Some say it is a light (cheap) bargain, some say it is heavy (costly); I have weighed it perfectly on the scales.

कोई कहे छानी, कोई कहे छावनी लियोन हे पचंता टोल

तन का गहना मैं सब कुछ दिन दियो है बाजूबंद खोल

Koi kahe chhaane, koi kahe chhawni, liyo hai bajanta dhol
Tan ka gehna main sab kuch deenha, liyo hai baajuband khol

Some say I did it secretly, some say I did it openly; I have proclaimed it to the beat of a drum.
I have given away all the ornaments of my body, even untying my armlet

असुवन जल सींच-सींच प्रेम बेल बोई 

अब तो बेल फ़ैल गयी आनंद फल होई

Asuvan jal seench-seench prem bel boi
Ab to bel phail gayi, anand phal hoi

Watering it with the tears of my eyes, I sowed the creeper of love.
Now that the creeper has spread and grown, it yields the fruit of supreme bliss.

तात-मात भ्रात बंधू आपणो ना कोई

छाड़ गयी कुल की कान का करीहे कोई?

Taat maat bhraat bandhu, aapno na koi
Chhaad gayi kul ki kaan, kya karihe koi?

Taat maat bhraat bandhu, aapno na koi
Chhaad gayi kul ki kaan, kya karihe koi?

Spiritual Significance of Praying to Lord Krishna

Chanting or absorbing this deeply expressive kirtan allows you to cultivate Madhurya Bhava—the devotional mood where the soul views Lord Krishna as its supreme beloved.

Psychologically, mirroring Mirabai’s total surrender offers immense relief from the weight of identity anxieties, stress, and societal pressures, gently steering the mind toward internal validation and peace. Spiritually, it serves as an invaluable addition to a reflective devotional routine because it shifts our focus away from conditional material prayers toward an unconditional relationship with the divine. By welcoming this mood into your spiritual environment, you invite a profound sense of emotional liberation, filling your life with the comforting realization that you are eternally protected and loved.
