LYRICS:

haiń āńkha vo jo śyāma kā daraśana kiyā kare

haiń śīṣ jo prabhu carana meń vandana kiyā kare

bekāra vo mukha hai, jo rahe vyartha bātoń meń

mukha vo hai jo hari nāma kā sumirana kiyā kare

hīre mote se nahīń śobhā hai hāth kī

hai hāth jo bhagavān kā pūjan kiyā kare

marakara bhī amara nāma hai us jīva kā jaga meń

prabhu prema meń balidāna jo jīvan kiyā kare

TRANSLATION:

They are truly eyes that behold the vision of Syama (Krsna). It is truly a head that offers obeisances to the Lord feet in prayer. Useless is such a mouth that speaks useless topics. It is truly a mouth that constantly remembers Lord Hari’s name. Diamond and pearls do not truly ornament a hand; for it is truly a hand offers prayers to the Lord. After death, the name of such a spirit soul remains immortal, for continuing to live after sacrificing everything for the love of the Lord.

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

This song often acts as a prelude before the song Aisi Lagi Lagan when rendered by Anup Jalota. It is sung in Raga Kirvani.

This song was also featured at the end of the ISKCON produced film “Haridasa Thakura.”
