Tulasī Āratī Lyrics

O Tulasīdevi, beloved of Lord Kṛṣṇa, I bow down to you again and again.  The only gift I desire to obtain from you is your help, so that I may be rewarded with the service of Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa.  It is well known that anyone who takes shelter of you gets their wishes fulfilled by being granted residence in Vrindāban.  Hence, I humbly request you to kindly grant me that same boon.  I strongly desire to be granted residence in that grove where Their Lordships Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa enjoy Their pastimes, so I too can always see the storehouse of those beautiful Lordships.  O devi, please accept my plea and make me a follower of those Gopīs who assist in the service of Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa and thus make me your maidservant.  The devotee Kṛṣṇa dāsa humbly says, please reward me that stage of devotion where I will drown in the ocean of love of Śrī Śrī Rādhā Govindaji.
