Sri Tulasi-Arti

Namo namaha tulasi! krishna-preyasi
radha-krishna-seva pabo ei abhilashi

O Tulasi, beloved of Krsna, I bow before you again and again. My desire is to obtain the service of Sri Sri Radha-Krsna.

je tomara sharana loy, tara vanchha purna hoy
kripa kori' koro tare brindavana-basi

Whoever takes shelter of you has his wishes fulfilled. Bestowing your mercy on him, you make him a resident of Vrndavana.

mor ei abhilash, bilas kunje dio vas
nayane heribo sada jugala-rupa-rashi

My desire is that you will also grant me a residence in the pleasure groves of Sri Vrndavana-dhama. Thus, within my vision I will always behold the beautiful pastimes of Radha and Krsna.

ei nivedana dharo, sakhir anugata koro
seva-adhikara diye koro nija dasi

I beg you to make me a follower of the cowherd damsels of Vraja. Please give me the privilege of devotional service and make me your own maidservant.

dina krishna-dase koy, ei jena mora hoy
sri-radha-govinda-preme sada jena bhasi

This very fallen and lowly servant of Krsna prays, ''May I always swim in the love of Sri Radha and Govinda.
