hamāro dhana, shrī barasāno dhāma
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
The divine abode, Barasānā is our own treasure, where Shyāmā who captivates the heart of Shrī Kṛishṇa and Shrī Kṛishṇa who captivates the heart of Shyāmā, are always engaged in transcendental līlās; seeing whose incomparable beauty even crores of Baikuṇṭhas of Mahāvishṇu feel embarrassed; where there are innumerable groves of creepers and beautiful Gahvaravana; where there are many beautiful ponds like Pīrī Pokhara, Prema Sarovara, Vṛishabhānukuṇḍa, etc., which are always beautified with different types of lotuses; where always remains spring with blossomed flowers of the Kalpavṛiksha; where the Supreme Brahma Shrī Kṛishṇa is made to dance in the Sāṁkarī Khora by the sakhīs without any price; where Bhagwan Shrī Kṛishṇa always prays to the sakhīs with a yearning heart to be blessed with a glimpse of Kishorī Jī; where even the Supreme Lord wanders in the lanes of Gahvara forest calling aloud the name of Shrī Rādhā; and where, adds Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, even the Supreme Brahma, who was always very proud of being Nirañjana i.e. absolutely incapable of any attachment, has become the collyrium of the eyes of Kishorī Jī’s maids, the maidens of Braja.

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
hamāro dhana, shrī barasāno dhāma
jahaṁ biharati manamohana-mohini, mohini-mohana shyāma
lakhi baikuṇṭha koṭi shata lājata, adbhuta, anupama grāma
mañjula-kuñja-latā-puñjana bana, gahavara ati abhirāma
pīrī pokhara, prema sarovara, kamala-sushobhi lalāma
vikasita kusuma pārijātādika, basa basanta jehi ṭhāma
khori sāṁkarī bicha sakhi nachavati, brahma shyāma binu dāma
‘hā! hā!’, khāta sakhina soṁ hari lali-, milana hetu vasuyāma
ārata brahma pukārata galiyana, lai nita rādhe nāma
brahma ‘kripālu’ nirañjana bani gayo, dṛiga añjana brajabhāma
