Mero Kanha Gulab Ko Phul
(Refrain) mero kānhā gulab ko phul kiśori meri kusuma kalī
(Refrain) My Kanha (another name of Krsna ) is the rose, while Kisori (another name of Srimati Radharani ) is the bud of the flower.
kānhā mero nandaju ko chonā śrī rādhe
vṛṣabhānu lalī kiśori meri kusuma kalī
My Kanha is son of Nanda Maharaja, while Sri Radhe is the beloved daughter of Maharaja Vrsabhanu.
kānhā māṅge mākhana lonā rādhe bhāve
misarī kī dalī kiśori meri kusuma kalī
Kanha always wants to take butter, while Radha enjoys sweets.
kānhā khele nandaju ke āṅgana rādhe khele
rangīlī kī galī kiśori meri kusuma kalī
Krsna plays in the courtyard of Nanda Maharaja, while Radha plays in the meadows.
vraja nidhi daraśana kī pyāsi voh to
naṭakaṭa gwāli gali kiśori meri kusuma kalī
The entire community of Vraja is thirsty to see the naughty cowherd boy Krsna, and the beloved bud of the flower, Kisori Radhe.
