Dainya Madhuri · Pad 82
lo swāmini mohiṁ apanāya re
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh Swāminī! Accept me as Your own at least now. I am known as Yours, still I am meandering from pillar to post. Although I sing only Your attributes, yet I don’t get rid of my false ego. I do not feel happy from within listening to my false or true criticism either. My mind always wants to hear praises. The matter of surprise is that it refuses to accept the truth even after knowing it fully well. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “Oh Kishorī Jī! You are thoroughly aware of my inner state, why then are You taking so long in being graceful to me?”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
lo swāmini mohiṁ apanāya re
dara dara ṭhokara khāuṁ tihāroi, dāsī dāsa kahāya re
nita guna gāna karūṁ tumharoī, tadapi na ahamiti jāya re
sāṁchī jhūṭha na āpuna nindā, sunatahiṁ mana harashāya re
saba jānata pai mānata nāhīṁ, yaha acharaja darasāya re
tuma ‘kripālu’ mohiṁ jānati nīkī, puni kyoṁ bera lagāya re
