Minoti Rakhoye Giridhari Lal

1

( refrain ) minotī rākhoye giridhāri lāl
( mana ) akhīra āge raho śyāma gopāla

Refrain: Please fulfill the desires of my impatient eyes to see You, O Syama! O Gopala! O Giridhari Lal!

2

caraṇa tale mor ei tanu mana praṇāmi kuler mada
loho nivedana ( āmi ) janame janame premer kānāl

I have offered my mind and body to Your lotus feet. Please accept my humble prayers and offerings and please fulfill my humble request that my love stays with You birth and death.

3

tomār virohe chaḍa sakal byātha soibo
tomāri lāgi ei deho tār hṛdoy bāsore
milana rāge akhī milā prabhu akhīr sāge
( tumi ) mirār prītam hoye raho cirokāl

Being separated from You, I sit and weep each morning and for Your sake, I will give up this body. Please stay in my heart, O Krsna and meet my desire to meet You. You are the love of Mira Bai, who is constantly waiting and waiting for You all the time.
