Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Enraptured in the divine love-bliss, the great man of knowledge, Uddhava, says to Shyāmasundara, “Blessed are these maidens of Braja, whose entire being is permeated by God with form and attributes. The eight symptoms of divine ecstasy manifest themselves together in their body. Without any effort at all, they enter the state of trance. Seeing all this, I could not but sacrifice myself on them. The whole world, animate as well as inanimate, appears to them to be the manifestation of Shyāmasundara.” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, Uddhava says, “When will even we be blessed with a chance to place their foot-dust on our head, living in Braja in the form of a creeper or a tree?”

mādho! dhanya dhanya brajanāra
jinake roma roma urajhāno, saguṇa brahma sākāra
sātvika bhāva āṭhahūṁ inake, prakaṭata nita ika sāra
sahaja samādhi sadā ina sabakī, gayoṁ dekhi balihāra
inahiṁ chetanāchetana saba jaga, dīkhata nandakumāra
kaba ‘kripālu’ hama latā viṭapa bani, charaṇa dhūri sira dhāra
