Mira's Song (Mharo Pranam)

by Mirabai
Language: Hindi

mharo pranama bhanke bihari ji
mharo pranama

mora mukuta mathe tilaka biraje
kundala alaka kariko

adhara madhura kara bamsi bajavai
rijha rijhau radhapyariko mharo pranama

yaha chhabi dekha magana bhai mira
mohana giravaradhariji

Translation

My respects to Banke Bihari, Who has a crown of peacock-feathers,
a tilaka mark on the forehead and locks
of hair hanging over his earring hoops.

My respects to Mohana,
Who puts a flute to beautiful lips and
plays, Who playfully entices His dear Radha.

This image captivates Miraâ€"this image
of Mohana, Who lifted Govardhana Mountain.
