Traslation of Mira Bai's bhajan
A devotional talk referencing the poet-saint Mirabai and her heartfelt bhajans.
"She says to God, 'Bājhanī od danosti, bhakti, lásky, Tum bīne rājo na jāy.'"
"Without you, I can't survive, I can't live. Oh beloved one, come to me."
The speaker begins with repeated invocations of "Mahāprabhujī" and mentions the great devotee Mirabai, promising to share her story. He quotes one of her compositions, explaining that "Tum" is an address to God. He humorously warns against confusing it with the German homophone "Tum" (meaning mad or crazy), before offering a translation of the plea within the verse.
