English Translation
1. Oh Lord who is the darling of Nanda,
I see in the black of the feathers of the crow,
Your colour of black, Oh darling lord.
2. In whichever tree I see, oh darling lord,
I see your green colour, oh Lord.
3. In whichever song I hear my darling Lord,
I am able to hear your music only, my lord
4. And if I keep my finger inside a raging fire,
I only feel that sweet sensation of touching you.
