(refrain)
rādhe rādhe syāmal pyāre tāro jīvana naiyā
dvāre āyī bina bikhārī tāro jīvana naiyā
(1)
tu hai prītī sāńvariyā kī śyāma tere dīvānī
śyāmal bina jo baḿsī sunī sūra bina sunī tarāṇe
ab barsī kī kṛpa tihārī tāro jīvana naiyā
(2)
rādhe rādhe rāhade mujhko sācā jīvana pāu
juṭhe bandhan toḍa duń sāre caraṇana meń miṭa jāu
ab kyoń chup ho merī bāre tāro jīvana naiyā
(3)
śyāmal saritā prema mayī hai rādhā amṛta dhārā
dhāra se ek būńda jo chalake ho jāye nistārā
śaraṇa paḍe hai sudhlo hamārī tāro jīvana naiyā
(4)
tu hai bhakti tu hai śakti tu hi hai jagamāyā
terā cintana bandhana kāńṭe jisne bhī tujhe dhyāya
śyāma prīiyā ham prema pujārī taro jīvana naiyā
TRANSLATION
(Refrain): Radhe Radhe! Lover of Lord Syama! Please give us a new life. We have come to Your gateway empty handed. Please give us a new life.
1) You are the lover of Lord Krsna and are mad with His love. Lord Krsna without His flute is like a note without its sound and support. Please shower Your mercy upon us and grant us a new life.
2) Radhe Radhe! I eagerly await a new clean life. I have broken all false bonds and surrendered myself to Your lotus feet until death and beyond. After saying this, why have you become silent?
3) Lord Syama is the ocean of love for Radha who is the immortal river of nectar. In this river of nectar there is gold that flashes and shines. We surrender unto Your lotus feet and please straighten out my life.
4) You are devotional service as well as power. You are Jagamaya. For Your sake, I cut those relations which are irrelevant towards You. Oh Lover of Syama, we are worshippers of love. Please give us a new life.
