māninī! kahu, kachhu to kā bāta?
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Feeling a little scared, Lalitā says to Vṛishabhānunandinī, “Oh Swāminī Jī! Say at least something. What is the matter? I admit that Shyāmasundara is good-for-nothing, He is very bad, but Your remark about me that I am on His side is greatly surprising. I have come just because I saw You sad. What relation do I have with Shyāmasundara? Even if I do have any, it is only because of You.” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, Lalitā says, “Oh Swāminī Jī! We want to see You smiling every moment.”

māninī! kahu, kachhu to kā bāta?
lalitā kahati swāminī jū soṁ, mana hī mana ḍarapāta
hauṁ mānati ve bad̤e bure haiṁ, nigure shyāmala-gāta
pai jo kaha, hama ora ḍhure una, yaha acharaja darasāta
hama to tumahiṁ dukhī lakhi āīṁ, mama vāsoṁ kā nāta
tumahiṁ ‘kripālu’ lalī! hama nita chaha, dekhana mṛidu musakāta
