aho hari! bera bhaī ririyāta
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh Shyāmasundara! Innumerable lives have passed begging for the alms of Your grace. You are omnipresent and omniscient too. Why then don’t You listen to my call? Although I read and listen to the Vedas, the Shāstras, the Purāṇas day and night, yet, Oh Lord! This mind does not renounce its unrestrained arbitrariness. Although I check it repeatedly and try to bring it round in various ways, still, says Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, our wrong cannot be set right without Your grace.

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
aho hari! bera bhaī ririyāta
tuma vyāpaka puni antaryāmī, puni kata nāhiṁ sunāta
nigamāgama purāna yadyapi hauṁ, pad̤hata, sunata dina rāta
tadapi nātha yaha mana manamānī, karata na neku aghāta
yadyapi bāra bāra hauṁ barajata, samujhāvata bahubhāṁta
tadapi ‘kripālu’ kṛipā binu tumharī, bigarī bani na sakāta
