“Mahra
re Giridhar Gopal …” (Mere to Giridhar Gopal) is a devotional song sung by Meerabai for her beloved Husband
(Lord Krishna). Meerabai was a dignified, spiritual singer and devotee of Lord
Krishna. Her Bhajans (prayerful
songs) are popular throughout the India and they are in passionate praise of
Lord Krishna. This prayer - Mahra re Giridhar Gopal shows her
eternal feelings of love and her strong belief of her only relation with Lord
Krishna.
Mahra re Giridhar Gopal, Dusara na koya.
Dusara na koyi sadhu sakal lok joya.
Mahra re Giridhar Gopal, Dusara na koya…
I have only
Giridhar Gopal (Lord Krishna) and no one else.
I have seen
all the people, but no one else is as
good (as my Giridhar Gopal).
I have only
Giridhar Gopal (Lord Krishna) and no one else…
Bhaya
chandya, bandha chandya, chandya saga sohya.
Sadha sang
baith baith, lok laaj khoya.
Mahra re
Giridhar Gopal, Dusara na koya…
I have left
my brothers, friends and all the relatives. I have lost the respect (as a Rajput Princess) of all the people, to be in the company with Sages (the
devotees of Lord Krishna). I have only Giridhar Gopal and no one else…
Bhagat
dekhya raji hua, jagat dekhya roya.
Aswan jal
sinch sinch, prem vel bhuya.
Mahra re
Giridhar Gopal, Dusara na koya…
I am
delighted to see devotees (of Lord Krishna) but feeling sad after looking at
the world. I have grounded the creeper of
my love (to Lord Krishna) through
watering my tears. I have only
Giridhar Gopal and no one else…
Dadh math
dhrit tadh laya, dar daya chuya,
Rana vish
ro pyala bhejya, piya mangan bhuya.
Mahra re
Giridhar Gopal, Dusara na koya
Rana has sent a glass of poison (which Meera drank
with joy). But the poison
got frozen and was absorbed by the churner only because she was having tender
feelings (for Lord Krishna). And she was delighted from the bottom (of her
heart) for the mercy of her Husband (Lord
Krishna, to save her life). I have only Giridhar Gopal and no one else…
Ab t baat
phel padya, Jaanya sab koya.
‘Meera’ re
lagan lagya, hua ho jo hoya.
Mahra re
Giridhar Gopal, Dusara na koya…
Now this
news has already spread and everyone knows that Meera is having an intense
fondness (for Lord Krishna). What does
it matter (let people gossip as they please)?!! I have only Giridhar Gopal
and no one else…
This prayer explains the madness and firmness
of Meerabai in worshiping Lord Krishna. She was the true believer for the
existence and mercy of Lord Krishna and lived her life to get absorbed in
contemplation of Lord Krishna. This
prayer and Meerabai’s life are a tremendous example of being courageous and absolutely
focused towards your own fondness… ad
