Dhanī Dhanī Gokul Dhanī, Dhanī Yashodā Maye, Dhanī Brajvasi Vraj Dhām Jāha-a, Pragate Hari Ji Āye, Yashodā Jāyo Lālanā Re Palnā, Jhule Krishna Murāri, Jhulo Jhulo Hai Nanda Ke Lāl Gokul has become rich. Blessed is Mother Yashodā, blessed are the people of Vraj, blessed is the abode of Vraj where Lord Srī Hari has incarnated. Mother Yashodā has given birth to the beloved son Krishna, the slayer of demon Mura. The beloved child is swinging in the cradle. O beloved son of Nanda Maharaj and Mother Yashodā, swing in the cradle. 1) The devotees come to plead and they please the Lord in the form. The religious scholars keep contemplating. In the cradle my beloved son is swinging. O beloved son of Mother Yashodā, swing in the cradle. 2) He took birth in Mathura. But He reached Nanda Maharaj as His son. He is my beautiful beloved Krishna with the dark complexion. 3) The auspicious songs of celebrations are being sung with joy. All Mein and women are happy. Your cradle is carved with precious sandalwood. 4) The demigods are showering the flowers. Everyone is singing Your glory. Your cradle is connected to the silk cord. 5) Samtal Das happily sings in his heart - “I sacrifice to the beloved son of Nanda Maharaj”. The supreme Lord, the creator of all has manifested Himself. My beloved son should not fall prey to the evil eye. Please apply collyrium to my beloved son. I want to put anklets to my beloved son, so that He does not go far from sight.
