Surdas Pad 18 meaning
ankhiyan hari-darasan kee pyasee
dekhyau chahati kamalanain kau, nisi-din rahati udasee
अँखियाँ हरि-दरसन की प्यासी।
देख्यौ चाहति कमलनैन कौ, निसि-दिन रहति उदासी॥
These eyes are thirsty for a glimpse of Hari. They long to see the lotus-eyed one, and stay sad day and night.
What it means
Longing is a form of love. The ache of waiting to see someone dear, a parent abroad, a friend far away, is natural. Let it remind you to treasure them when you meet.How it helps in real life
- With family: Your parents in Pune are counting days until your US visit. When you finally land, keep your laptop closed for the first two days.
- With friends: Your best friend moved to Melbourne and you miss her badly. Schedule a fixed Sunday call, so the longing turns into something you both protect.
हिंदी में अर्थ
ये आँखें हरि के दर्शन की प्यासी हैं। कमल-नयन को देखना चाहती हैं और दिन-रात उदास रहती हैं।
तड़प भी प्रेम का ही रूप है। दूर बसे किसी अपने से मिलने की बेचैनी स्वाभाविक है। मिलें तो उन पलों को सँजोकर रखें।
