darasa kaba daihau nandakishora!
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh Shyāmasundara! When will You bless me with Your beautiful sight? When will my mind dance like a peacock seeing the dark-cloud-complexioned You? When will you glance at me with Your mischievous, love-filled eyes, regarding me as Your own? Oh Heart-stealer of the maidens of Braja! When will You steal away my heart as well? When will I become Your actual maid by becoming maid of the maid of those maids of Yours who reside in Braja? Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī asks, “When will I become completely oblivious of my body drowning in the bliss of Your divine love?”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
darasa kaba daihau nandakishora!
lakhi ghanashyāma shyāma ghana nachihaiṁ, kabai mora manamora
kabai dṛigañchala chañchala chañchala!, lakhihau hamarihuṁ ora
kaba laihau chitachora morahūṁ, brajabanitani-chita-chora
kaba brajabāsini dāsini dāsini, dāsī banihauṁ tora
kaba ‘kripālu’ tanu-sudhi bisaraihauṁ, hvai rasa prema vibhora
