(1)

prabhujī tuma candana ham pānī
jākī ańg ańg bāsa samāni

prabhujī tuma ghana-bana ham morā
jaise citavata canda cakorā

prabhujī tuma dīpaka ham bātī
jākī jyota barai din rātī

prabhujī tuma motī ham dhāgā
jaise sone milata suhāgā

prabhujī tuma svāmī ham dāsā
aisī bhakti karai raidāsā

ab kaise chūṭe rām, nām raṭa lāgī

TRANSLATION

1) Lord, if you are sandalwood, I am water; fragranced by You in all parts of my body.

2) Lord, if you are a cloud, I am a peacock; looking for You like a cakora for the full moon.

3) Lord, if you are a lamp, I am the wick; with the light of love burning day and night.

4) Lord, if you are a pearl, I am the thread; just as as gold looks beautiful when adorned on a beautiful married woman.

5) Lord, you are the master and I am Your servant, Raidasa, who is always performing devotion to You.

6) There is no escape; I have already been attached to the name of chanting of Lord Rama’s name.

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

This song was the third track from the ISKCON’s tape “Bhajan Sandhya” by Anup Jalota performed in Juhu in the early 1980s.
