Mother, give me my Girdhari - Mira Bai

Mother, give me my Girdhari,
My mountain-bearer!
I do not long for jewellery, or for costly clothes,
nor do I long for a palace or a mansion.
I swear by the lotus feet of Girdhar;
Dearer to me than my own life:
It is Girdhar, my Lord, that I yearn for, ever and ever again.
