radhe krishna!
namo venkateshaya

dear bhaagavatas,
so far we njoyed surdas's poems on kanna. now lets njoy mira's poems on the 
same Dark one...

FIRST POEM
**********

pâyo jî, maim to nâma ratna dhana pâyo
bastu amolaka dî mere satguru, kirpâ kari apanâyo
janma janma kî puñjî pâî, jaga mem sabai khovâyo
kharcai nahim koĂ®, cora na levai, dina dina baRhata
savâyo
sat kî nâva khevaTiyâ satguru, bhavasâgara tara âyo
mîrâ ke prabhu giridhara nâgara, harkha harkha jasa
gâyo

I have found, yes, I have found the wealth of the
Divine Name's gem.
My true guru gave me a priceless thing. With his
grace, I accepted it.
I found the capital of my several births; I have lost
the whole rest of the world.
No one can spend it, no one can steal it. Day by day
it increases one and a quarter times.
On the boat of truth, the boatman was my true guru. I
came across the ocean of existence.
Mira's Lord is the Mountain-Holder, the suave lover,
of whom I merrily, merrily sing.

SECOND POEM
***********
citanandana âge nâcûngî
nâci nâci piya rasika rijhâûm, premî jana ko jâcûngî
prema prîta kâ bândha ghûnghrâ, sûrat kî kachanî
kâchûngî
loka loja kula kâ marjâdâ, yâ maim eka na râkhûngî
piyâ ke palangâ jâ pauRhûngî, mîrâ hari rang râcûngî

I will dance before the Consciousness-Charmer.
Having danced and danced, I will please my enjoyer. I
will feel my lover.
I will tie on the ankle bells of love and affection. I
will wear the dancing-garment of His Face.
Worldly modesty, family honor—I will not care for
either of these.
I will go and lie in the bed of my beloved. I, Mira,
will dye myself in Hari's color.

adiyal apologizes 4 any mistakes made. adiyal got the poems from several 
websites, just thought that all of us can njoy them 2gether. :)

lottsa krishna premai,
kalaivani
radhe shyam
namo narayana
