हमें तो, एक तिहारी आस |
काहू के काहू को बल हरि, हमहिं तुमहिं विस्वास |
कोउ कर योग यज्ञ दानादिक, कोउ कर जप उपवास |
कोउ कर चारिधाम तिरथ अरु, कोउ कर काशीवास |
कोउ कर आस स्वर्ग अपवर्गहिं, कोउ बैकुण्ठ विलास |
हम 'कृपालु' गोपाल! तिहारिहीं, करत आस बनि दास ||
हम 'कृपालु' गोपाल! तिहारिहीं, करत आस बनि दास ||
Meaning:
O Lord! You are my one and only hope. In this world, different people
rely on different means but I trust only you. There are some who
practice austerities, sacrifices, alms-givings, etc and some go for
chanting, fasting, etc. Some go on the pilgrimage of all the four
shrines and some reside in Kashi. Some desire for heaven and
liberation, while some for the opulence of Vaikunth. But, Shree
Kripaluji says that I long only for You (Gopal), like a humble servant.
