Jo Tum Toro Piya
( refrain ) jo tum toro piyā maiṅ nā hī torūn ̣
re toso prīta tore kṛṣṇa kauna saṅga jorūn ̣ re
Refrain: Even though You have broken this bond, I will not break this bond. If I break my bond of love to You, Krsna, who else can I form this bond with?
tum bhae taruvara mai ṅ bhaī
paṅkhiyā tum bhae sarovara maiṅ bhaī
machiyā tum bhae girivara maiṅ bhaī
cārā tum bhaye candā maiṅ bhaī cakorā
You are the great tree and I am the bird. You are the lake and I am the fish. You are the mountain and I am the stream. You are the moon and I am the cakora bird that stares at the moon.
tum bhae motī prabhu ham bhaye
dhāgā tum bhae sonā ham bhaye
suhāgā mīrā ke prabhu bṛja ke bāsī
tuma mere ṭhākura maiṅ terī dāsī
You are the pearl and I am the thread. You are the gold and I am the benefit. Mira's Lord is a resident of Vraja. You are my Lord and I am Your maidservant.
