Mharo Pranama Banke Bihari Ki
( refrain ) mhāro praṇāma bāṅke bihārī ko
Refrain: My humble obeisances to Banke Bihari!
mora mukuṭa māthe tilaka birāje
kuṇḍala alakā kārī ko mhāro praṇāma
He wears a peacock-crown. His forehead is decorated with tilaka. To the one who has ear-hoops with tress-locks hanging over, my humble obiesances to You!
adhara madhura kara baṁsī bajāvai rījha
rījhau rādhāpyārī ko mhāro praṇāma
He plays His flute from His beautiful lips! To the one who enchants His dearest Rādhā in a playful way, my humble obeisances to You!
yaha chabi dekha magana bhaī mīrā
mohana giravaradhārī ko mhāro praṇāma
Having seen this image of the Lord has captivated and excited Mira Bai. To the enchanting Mohana, the lifter of Govardhana Hill, my humble obeisances to You!
