Blissful sankeertan session with Shri Maharaj Ji as He composes new lines of this enchanting bhajan. English translation for the verses being sung are provided below.
(Recorded in Kripalu Kunj, Vrindavan, 1990)

mere pranadhar hain piya pyari ke padarvinda
(The sole support of my life are the lotus-feet of Shri Radha Krishn)

mere nain chakor hain dou pada-nakhamani-chand
(My eyes are like the Chakor bird, unceasingly staring at the moon-like luster of the toe-nails of the lotus-feet of Shri Radha Krishn)

chuvata rahata nita dou pada premanand
(The lotus-feet of Shri Radha Krishn constantly ooze divine nectar)

premanand bindu par vaaron koti brahmanand
(A single drop of divine bliss of Radha Krishn can be sacrificed on millions of Brahmanandas (the bliss of the formless absolute Brahm)

gopi bane dole shambu aiso hai ya premanand
(So sweet is this nectar of divine love, that Lord Shiva becomes a Gopi and wanders in Braj to drink it)

dou pada-arvind sata chita aanand
(Both of Their lotus-feet are eternal, conscious and blissful (There is no difference between the personality of Radha Krishn and Their lotus-feet. They are one and the same))

dou ura dou fasen premanand ke fand
(Bound by Their own love, They both are trapped in each other's hearts)

dou hridayaarvind base dou pada dwand
(Their lotus-feet eternally reside in each other's hearts)

dhanya bhoop vrishbhana, dhanya dhanya bhoop nand
(Blessed is King Vrishbhanu, the Father of Shri Radha. Blessed is Nand Baba, the Father of Shri Krishn)

dou jaane dou gati, kaha jaane shruti chhand
(Only Radha and Krishn understand each others personality. How can the verses of the Vedas know Their intimate secrets?)

dou guna gaave dou, dou driga pata band
(Radha and Krishn sing each others glories while closing Their eyes and meditating on each other's forms)

brahmanandi yaache jaako paad padm makarand
(The great 'paramhansas' who are ever-engrossed in the bliss of the formless Brahm, yearn the divine fragrance of the lotus-feet of Radha and Krishn (what to say of the Lotus-Feet Themselves, which are much beyond their grasp))

mero mana hweihain kaba paad padm ko milind
(When will my mind be completely attached to Their lotus-feet, just as a bumblebee is to a fragrant flower)

dou pada-nakhamani-chandrika pei vaaron chand
(The beauty of the moon can be sacrificed on the divine luster of the tip of Their toe-nails)

gore pada radhika ke, neele pada govind
(Shri Radha's lotus-feet are fair complexioned, whereas Shri Krishn's are blue)

shyam piyen shyamanand, shyama piyen shyam aanand
(Shri Krishn unceasingly drinks the divine nectar of Shri Radha and Shri Radha of Shri Krishn)

shyama shyam aanand piyen braj ke gopi gopa vrind
(The inhabitants of Braj drink the divine nectar of both, Shri Radha and Krishn together!)

laali ke aage na chalen laal ju ko chhal chhand
(Shri Krishn's mischief does not work in front of Shri Radha)

prem ke aadheen rahen shruti kahe swachhand
(They are bound by the power of love, yet the Vedas declare them to be supremely independent)

laali jaba maan karen laal ki ho vaani band
(Shri Krishn naturally becomes quiet upon witnessing the 'maan' of Kishori Ji)

laali raajen bhaanu ank, laal raajen ank nand
(King Vrishbhaanu's lap is adorned with Baby Radha, whereas Shri Krishn resides in the lap of Nand Baba)

laali laal raajen nita mere hridayaarvind
(Shri Radha and Krishn both eternally reside in my heart)

laal aaven laali bhajen, laali bhajen nandnand
(Shri Krishn also appears when one worships Shri Radha. Shri Radha also appears when one worships Shri Krishn)

chinmaya dou pada dwand, kaa jaane 'kripalu' mand
(Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj humbly says, "The lotus-feet of Shri Radha Krishn are divine and indescribable, hence how can an ignorant being such as Myself know Their glory?")
