Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh Shyāmasundara! When will I be blessed with the eternal dwelling in Your divine abode, Braja? I do not ask for hell, heaven, four types of liberation or the opulence of Baikuṇṭha. I only beg for the habitation in Braja. Please fulfil this desire of mine. Residing in Braja, let me sing only Your attributes, remaining absolutely away from worldly objects. Let me be blessed with the blissful sight of Your divine rāsa-līlā in the beautiful bowery alcoves and feel enraptured with divine love-bliss. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “Thus let me be called Your servant by becoming the servant of Your servants.”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
kabai hari! hauṁ paihauṁ brajavāsa?
naraka, swarga, apavarga na māṁgata, nahiṁ baikuṇṭha-vilāsa
māṁgata bhīkha eka mana-mohana, puravahu mama abhilāsa
gāūṁ guna govinda raina-dina, jāūṁ nahiṁ jaga pāsa
hvai madamatta nikuñjani-puñjani, lakhūṁ mañju rasa-rāsa
hauṁ ‘kripālu’ asa dāsa kahāūṁ, bani dāsana ko dāsa
