Abhanga 1107

English: Tāpa-māyā flees — Yādava Yōgi-rāyā.

When tāpa-māyā flees at his sight; bhajā the Yādava-Yōgi-rāyā — and you have to recognize this register

When mid-body shines like million moons; pearl-necklace at throat — and you accept this image

When mahā-kāḷa and daityas tremble; see the dark form, pāpa-nāśi — and you allow this image

The verse

हरे त्यासि रे देखतां ताप माया । भजा रे भजा यादव योगिराया ॥१॥ शोभे मध्यभागीं कळा चंद्रकोटी । रुपा मीनली साजिरी माळकंठीं ॥२॥ महाकाळ हे कांपती दैत्य ज्यासी । पाहा सांवळें रूप हें पापनासी ॥३॥ जया चिंतितां अग्नि हा शांति नीवे । धरा मानसीं आपला देहभाव ॥४॥ तुक्या लागलें मानसीं देवपीसें । चित्त चोरटें सांवळें रूप कैसें ॥५॥
