TRANSLATION

Refrain: Please abide in the temple of my heart both day and night, O Krsna Murari, O Sri Krsna Murari!

1) Devotion, love, flower garlands, and sandalwood- please accept them, O Delighter of the Heart!

2) In life or in death I worship You with these offerings, Beautiful One, O Enchanter of the Heart!

3) Come, son of Nanda, and then, O Son of Nanda, I will offer Your arati ceremony with the lamplight of my love.

4) The waters of the Yamuna river cascade incessantly from my eyes in your separation, O Holder of Govardhana Hill!

5) May I pass my life absorbed only in songs of Your praise, O Krsna Murari, Sri Krsna Murari!
