7. Ashtayama Seva – Post-Evening Raas Verses
Now, after the evening, Shyama-Shyam have gone to the banks of Yamuna and are seated in a beautiful Raas Mandal. The beloved Priya-Priyatam are playing Raas. Sing these verses:
Aaj Gopal raas ras khelat, pulin kalpataru teer ri sajni.
Sharad vimal nabh chand virajat, rochak trividhi sameer ri sajni.
Champak bakul malati mukulit, matt mudit pik-keer ri sajni.
Desi sudhang raag-rang neeko, braj-juvatini ki bheer ri sajni.
Maghva mudit nisan bajayo, vrat chhaadyo muni dheer ri sajni.
Jai shreehit harivansh magan man shyama, harat madan ghan peer ri sajni.
Shyam sang Radhika raas mandal bani,
Beech Nandalal, Brajwal champak varan,
Jyon ghan tadit bich kanak marakat mani.
Let gati maan tatt thei hastak bhed,
Sa re ga ma pa dha ni ye sapt sur naadini.
Nirt ras pehir pat neel pragatit chhabi,
Vadan jenu jalad mein makar ki chandini.
Raag raagini taan maan sangeet mat,
Thakit Raakesh nabh sarad ki jaamini.
(Jai Shri) Hit Harivansh Prabhu hans kati kehri,
Doori krit Madan mad matt gaj gaamini.
