TRANSLATION
1) After how long will I
see You, O darling Giridhari Lal?
Until then, I will simply remain here, waiting and waiting! Tears are flowing
incessantly from my eyes. O when will I attain Your
vision?
2) O Lord, I have taken
shelter of Your lotus feet. In Your worship, I offer
my body and mind as flowers. My heart is fervent with these aspirations. Will
they go unfilled?
3) If You
will not give me a glimpse of Yourself out of limitless mercy, then why have
You given me this desire that completely fills my heart? O life and soul of
Mira! My desire is only for You! O when will I ever
attain Your vision?
