MEANING
मेरी अखियन देख्यो गिरिधरभावे ॥ कहा कहूं तोसों सुन सजनी उतहीं क्यों उठि धावे ॥१॥My eyes have seen Giridhar, and they are delighted. What shall I say to you? Listen, dear friend — why should one not at once rise and run there? ॥१॥मोर मुकुट काननकुंडल सखी तन गति सबें बिसरावे ॥ बाजूबंद कंठ मनि भूषण निरखि निरखि सचु पावे ॥२॥O friend, His peacock crown and the earrings at His ears make one forget all bodily awareness. Beholding again and again His armlets and the jeweled ornaments upon His neck, one finds true joy. ॥२॥छीतस्वामी कटि क्षुद्र घंटिका नूपुर पदहि सोहावे ॥ यह छबि बसत सदा विट्ठल उर मों मन मोद बढावे ॥३॥Chhit Swami says: the tiny bells at His waist and the anklets shining on His feet look beautiful. This form abides always in Vitthal’s heart and increases the joy of his mind. ॥३॥
