Virah Madhuri · Pad 87
kyoṁ piya! itano itarāya re
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
A virahiṇī says, “Oh beloved Shyāmasundara! Why are You putting on so much airs? My eyes are yearning to see You; they are shedding tears day and night. Oh cruel-hearted! If You gave agony, You should have also told its cure. Bless my eyes with the sight of Your fascinating face at least once. Why are You tantalising me so much? The more You smile, the more Your separation injures me.” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, “If You are unable to come by any means whatsoever, call me at least.”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
kyoṁ piya! itano itarāya re
tumhare darasa hetu dṛiga tarasata, nishidina jala barasāya re
jo bepīra! pīra dai to kyoṁ, aushadhi nāhiṁ batāya re
eka bāra dikharāu kamala mukha, kāhe ko tarasāya re
titanoi viraha satāya hāya mohiṁ, jitanoi tū musakāya re
jo ‘kripālu’ nahiṁ āya sake to, mohīṁ kāhiṁ bulāya re
