Virah Madhuri · Pad 105
daī! mohiṁ, daī pīra bepīra
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
A virahiṇī says, “Oh God! That Bepīra (cruel) Shyāmasundara has generated pain in my heart. I had gone to fetch water from the Yamunā. Nandakumāra was already there. I don’t know what magic He exercised through His look that my heart was filled with sweet pain. I somehow reached my home with great difficulty. I try to hide that sweet pain through various means due to the fear of social propriety, yet I find myself absolutely unable to do so.” In the meanwhile, punning on the word ‘bepīra’, Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī said, “A penniless cannot give money to anyone, but look at the wonderful miracle of this ‘bepīra’ ahīra Shyāmasundara, that even after being bepīra (be = without, pīra = pain), He distributes pīra (pain) to all.”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
daī! mohiṁ, daī pīra bepīra
nāgari bharana gaī rahi gāgari, tahaṁ nāgara raha vīra!
vāne nā jāne kā kīno, māri naina ura tīra
hauṁ jyoṁ-tyoṁ āī ghara lai saṁga, madhura vedanā pīra
aba so pīra durāvati pai ura, dharata na kaisehuṁ dhīra
de ‘kripālu’ bepīra pīra yaha, acharaja dekhu ahīra
