Shri Krishna Bal Leela Madhuri · Pad 47
arī o, ghūṁghaṭa vārī nāri!
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Shyāmasundara says to a sakhī, “Oh Lady with the veil! Surrender your body, mind and soul to Shyāmasundara because the human life is momentary.” The sakhī, scolding Shyāmasundara said, “Oh shameless promiscuous Shyāmasundara! Leave my path, don’t abuse me like this, otherwise I will complain to my husband. He is very skilled in brandishing a lathi. He will teach You a good lesson. I have not intentionally looked at a man other than my husband till today. I have by all means observed the chastity and loyalty of a devoted wife.” Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī comments to the sakhī, “Oh sakhi! Shyāmasundara is not any other man. He is the Supreme man (God), who has descended on the earth to gratify you all.”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
arī o, ghūṁghaṭa vārī nāri!
tana mana prāna dāna de kānhahiṁ, jīvana hai dina chāri
nilaja nipaṭa lampaṭa chalu haṭu haṭu, jani dījo mohiṁ gāri
mama gūjara laṭhamāra kahauṁ jo, le ṭhakurāi nikāri
hauṁ na kabahuṁ para-purusha nihāryoṁ, ika pativrata vratadhāri
yaha ‘kripālu’ para-purusha nāhiṁ sakhi! parama purusha avatāri
