ūdho!, kahiyo una ghanashyāma
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Sending their message to Shyāmasundara through Uddhava, the maidens of Braja state, “Go and tell that Shyāmasundara, who is more beautiful than innumerable Kāmadevas, that He may send crores of Uddhavas to preach knowledge to us if it so pleases Him, but every fibre of our being is permeated by Him alone, there is not even an iota of place left for anything else. This, He knows very well in His heart, though He may not say it outwardly. We don’t have any complaint against Him. Let Him always remain happy.” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, the sakhīs add, “We want to say just this much that let Him remember us sometimes.”

ūdho!, kahiyo una ghanashyāma
koṭina ūdho bhalei paṭhāveṁ, koṭi kāma abhirāma
pai hamare prati-roma shyāma basa, tilahuṁ dharana nahiṁ ṭhāma
yaha jānata unahū nija mana mahaṁ, kahaiṁ na bhala sukha dhāma
hama nahiṁ kahati kachhū unate ve, sukhī raheṁ basu yāma
pai ‘kripālu’ kari leṁya surati piya, kabahuṁ kabahuṁ brajabāma
