[Guest guest]

namo venkateshaya

 

dear bhaagavatas,

so far we njoyed surdas's poems on kanna. now lets njoy mira's poems on the

same Dark one...

 

FIRST POEM

**********

 

pâyo jî, maim to nâma ratna dhana pâyo

bastu amolaka dî mere satguru, kirpâ kari apanâyo

janma janma kî puñjî pâî, jaga mem sabai khovâyo

kharcai nahim koî, cora na levai, dina dina baRhata

savâyo

sat kî nâva khevaTiyâ satguru, bhavasâgara tara âyo

mîrâ ke prabhu giridhara nâgara, harkha harkha jasa

gâyo

 

I have found, yes, I have found the wealth of the

Divine Name's gem.

My true guru gave me a priceless thing. With his

grace, I accepted it.

I found the capital of my several births; I have lost

the whole rest of the world.

No one can spend it, no one can steal it. Day by day

it increases one and a quarter times.

On the boat of truth, the boatman was my true guru. I

came across the ocean of existence.

Mira's Lord is the Mountain-Holder, the suave lover,

of whom I merrily, merrily sing.

 

SECOND POEM

***********

citanandana âge nâcûngî

nâci nâci piya rasika rijhâûm, premî jana ko jâcûngî

prema prîta kâ bândha ghûnghrâ, sûrat kî kachanî

kâchûngî

loka loja kula kâ marjâdâ, yâ maim eka na râkhûngî

piyâ ke palangâ jâ pauRhûngî, mîrâ hari rang râcûngî

 

I will dance before the Consciousness-Charmer.

Having danced and danced, I will please my enjoyer. I

will feel my lover.

I will tie on the ankle bells of love and affection. I

will wear the dancing-garment of His Face.

Worldly modesty, family honor—I will not care for

either of these.

I will go and lie in the bed of my beloved. I, Mira,

will dye myself in Hari's color.

 

adiyal apologizes 4 any mistakes made. adiyal got the poems from several

websites, just thought that all of us can njoy them 2gether.

 

lottsa krishna premai,

kalaivani

radhe shyam

namo narayana
