Chaupai Text

मैं निसिचर अति अधम सुभाऊ। सुभ आचरनु कीन्ह नहिं काऊ॥ जासु रूप मुनि ध्यान न आवा। तेहिं प्रभु हरषि हृदयँ मोहि लावा॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

maiṃ nisicara ati adham subhāū। subha ācaranu kīnha nahīṃ kāū॥ jāsu rūpa muni dhyāna na āvā। tehiṃ prabhu haraṣi hṛdayaṃ mohi lāvā॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

I am a very vile demon by nature. I have never performed any good conduct. The Lord, whose form does not even come to the meditation of sages, joyfully embraced me to his heart.
