मेरे तो गिरिधर गोपाल

मेरे तो गिरिधर गोपाल, दूसरो न कोई।

Giridhar Gopal alone is my Lord; there is no other refuge for me.

जाके सिर मोर मुकुट, मेरो पति सोई॥

The one crowned with peacock feathers is the beloved sovereign of my heart.

तात मात भ्रात बन्धु, अपनो नाहिं कोई।

Worldly relations can no longer define the soul's deepest belonging.

छाँड़ि दई कुल की कानि, कहा करिहै कोई॥

I have released concern for family prestige; what can worldly judgment do?

संतन ढिग बैठि बैठि, लोक लाज खोई।

Sitting among saints, I have let go of social embarrassment.

अंसुवन जल सींचि सींचि, प्रेम बेलि बोई॥

I watered the vine of divine love with my tears.

अब तो बेल फैल गई, आनन्द फल होई।

That vine has now spread and borne the fruit of joy.

भगत देखि राजी हुई, जगत देखि रोई॥

I rejoice on seeing devotees and grieve at the world's forgetfulness of the Divine.

दासी मीरा लाल गिरधर, तारो अब मोही॥

Meera, servant of Giridhar, asks her beloved Lord to carry her across.
