Makhana Ki Cori Cora Kamare lyrics

mākhana kī corī cora kāmare mai samajhā rahī toye mai samajhā rahī toye lāile, mai samajhā rahī toye

makhana ki cori cora kamare mai samajha rahi toye mai samajha rahi toye laile, mai samajha rahi toye

माखन की चोरी चोर कामरे मै समझा रही तोये मै समझा रही तोये लाइले, मै समझा रही तोये

Mother Yasoda says to her son, “I am trying to make You understand, my child, that it is naughty to steal butter.”

na lakhā gaiyā nanda bābā ko, nita naya mākhana hoye tāu ke tu corī kare, lāja na āve toye

na lakha gaiya nanda baba ko, nita naya makhana hoye tau ke tu cori kare, laja na ave toye

न लखा गैया नन्द बाबा को, नित नय माखन होये ताउ के तु चोरी करे, लाज न आवे तोये

“Nanda Baba has nine-hundred thousand cows who give fresh butter daily. Yet, still You steal butter from Your uncle’s house without feeling ashamed.”

hāta bāta gaja becana hāri, gaiyā ulahano hoya bane nāma hai nanda bābā ko, hāsī hamārī hoya

hata bata gaja becana hari, gaiya ulahano hoya bane nama hai nanda baba ko, hasi hamari hoya

हात बात गज बेचन हारि, गैया उलहनो होय बने नाम है नन्द बाबा को, हासी हमारी होय

“All the village people are speaking about Your mischievous activities. Nanda Baba has such a high reputation, but now everyone is laughing at us.”

barasānā pe bhai sadā lalā, nita naya carcā hoya bane bāpa kī rādhā beṭī, naya bhare gī toye

barasana pe bhai sada lala, nita naya carca hoya bane bapa ki radha beti, naya bhare gi toye

बरसाना पे भै सदा लला, नित नय चर्चा होय बने बाप की राधा बेटी, नय भरे गी तोये

“When the residents of Varsana meet together in the evening, there is always some fresh gossip. And now the name of Radha, the daughter of a reputable father, is connected with You.”

mākhana corī chute na maiyā, hona hāra to toya sūrya dāsa yaśodā ke āge, sadaka sadaka gaye toye

makhana cori chute na maiya, hona hara to toya surya dasa yasoda ke age, sadaka sadaka gaye toye

माखन चोरी छुते न मैया, होन हार तो तोय सूर्य दास यशोदा के आगे, सदक सदक गये तोये

Surya dasa looks on as Krsna stands panting before Yasoda while saying, “I cannot stop stealing butter, Maiya! , what will be, will be.”
