Dainya Madhuri · Pad 58
nātha! yaha māyā kauna balāya
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh Lord! What the hell this māyā is! The Veda states that māyā is Your external potency and is insentient by nature. Even after being bereft of consciousness, it makes even the greatest heavenly gods, human beings and ascetics dance to its tune, this is really astonishing. Saints tell that this power of Yours shows its might, only after attaining Your motive-force. Therefore, Oh Lord! You tell Yourself as to how can my feeble strength ever defeat Your endless power? Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, now stop this power of Yours from ruling me and adopt me as Your own forever.

nātha! yaha māyā kauna balāya
shruti kaha māyā shakti tihārī, jad̤a subhāya puni vāya
tabahuṁ nachāvati sura nara muni kahaṁ, yaha acharaja darasāya
pāya preraṇā-shakti tihārī, māyā, shakti dikhāya
tumharī shakti samaksha nātha mama, shakti kahā kari pāya
aba nija shaktihiṁ baraji ‘kripāluhiṁ’, lo kṛipālu apanāya
