Bhanot's Collection of Bhajans

KANHAIYÃ KANHAIYÃ

Kanhaiyã Kanhaiyã tujhe ãnã paðegã, ãnã paðegã
Kanhaiya Kanhaiya, You shall have to come
Vachan Geetã wãlã nibhãnã paðegã
The promise given in the Geeta shall have to be fulfilled
Vachan Geetã wãlã nibhãnã paðegã
The promise given in the Geeta shall have to be fulfilled

Gokul men ãyã Mathurã men ã
Come to Gokul, Come to Mathura
Chhavi pyãri pyãri kahin to dikhã
Come and show your lovely image somewhere
Are Sãnvare, are Sãnvare dekh ãke zarã
Oh Sanvare, come and have a look
Sooni sooni paði hai teri Dwãrika, Kanhaiyã..........
How desolate and lonely your Dwarika has become, Kanhaiya..........

Jamunã ke pãni men halchal nahin
There is no excitement in the waters of the Jamuna
Madhuban men pehlã sã jalthal nahin
The gardens have lost their previous glitter
Wahi kunj galiãn, wahi kunj galiãn wahi gopiãn
Those same narrow city lanes, Those same milkmaids
Chhanakati magar koi chhãgal nahin, Kanhaiyã..........
But not a tinkle from the anklets, Kanhaiya..........

Koi Teri gaeeyã kã wãli nahin
No one has inherited the responsibility for Your cows
Amãnat yeh Teri sambhãli nahin
This property of Yours lies untended and neglected
Kayi Kans Bhãrat men, kayi Kans Bhãrat men paidã huye
Many individuals of Kansa’s calibre have taken birth in India
Kapat se koi ghar bhi khãli nahin, Kanhaiyã..........
No home is absolutely free of fraud and deceit, Kanhaiya..........

Hare Hare Krishñã Hare Murãri
Jai Jai Govardhan Giradhãri, Hare Hare.........
