Shri Radha Madhuri · Pad 55
hamārī rādhe, rasikani-jīvana-mūri
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
A rasika sakhī says that our swāminī, Shrī Rādhā, whose foot-dust is begged for by the Supreme Lord Shrī Kṛishṇa Himself, is the life of all the rasikas. Bhagwan Kṛishṇa considers Himself to be the most fortunate whenever He is blessed with the rare opportunity of massaging Shrī Rādhikā’s feet. He cannot live without Her even for a moment. Even one moment of Shrī Rādhā’s absence from His sight is like one kalpa to Him. There is a constant rain of divine love in the beautiful bowers of Gahvaravana, which means the Supreme Lord Shrī Kṛishṇa always serves Shrī Rādhā in the above-mentioned way, seeing which, Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “I feel like sacrificing myself, but when the self-realized, self-contented men of wisdom i.e. paramahansas see or hear about it, they feel very amazed and exclaim, ‘Oh, what is this miracle! Even the Supreme Lord is massaging Rādhikā Jī’s feet!”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
hamārī rādhe, rasikani-jīvana-mūri
rasika-shiromaṇi shyāmahuṁ yāchata, jinake paga kī dhūri
lalī charana chāpana hita āpana, bhāga manāvata bhūri
pala pala kalapa lakhāta lalihiṁ gaye, palaka-oṭahūṁ dūri
gahavara-mañju-nikuñjani-puñjani, rasa barasata bharapūri
lakhi ‘kripālu’ bali jāta sarasa rasa, gyānī rahe bisūri
