(1)
suno radhe ei rasa, ami ye tomara vasa
toma vine nahi bhay mone
japite tomara nama, dhairaya na dhare prana
tuya rupa koriye dheyane
 
(2)
sri radhe sri radhe vani, ye dike yara mukhe suni
sei dike dhay mora man
cataka phukare jeno, ghana cahe varisana
teno heri o cańda vadana
 
(3)
karete murali thake, ghana radha boli dake
jotoksana na pay dekhite
tomara nupura-dhvani, apana sravana suni
tabe mora ksama hoy cite
 
(4)
radha-krsna duti nama, tahe tumi aguyana
ami kori tomari bhorasa
tabe se saphal hobo, tuya pada parasibo
dasa vrndavanera e asa
 
 
(1) [Sri Krsna speaks:] Hear Me, O Radhe! I am under your control! I don't think of anyone else with pleasure than You! My heart cannot remain peaceful when I do japa of Your name and I meditate on Your form.
 
(2) My mind runs to any place where I hear someone saying 'Sri Radhe, Sri Radhe!'. Just as a cataka bird stares at the rain cloud, similarly I stare at Your moonlike face.
 
(3) My flute is staying in my hand and is loudly crying out 'Radha!' as long as I don't see You. When I hear the sound of Your ankle bells with My own ears, then My heart comes at ease.
 
(4) Of the two names Radha-Krsna, You are the first one, and I long for you! Everything will become perfect if I can touch your feet. Such is the aspiration of Vrindavana Das.
