*How to Pray on Radhastami*
Hey Syamasundara! If You are pleased with me, if You are very delighted due to the appearance day of Your most beloved, then I just pray for one thing. What is that prayer?
O You, who adorns a peacock feather, whose face is graced with a gentle smile, who plays on the flute which enchants the mind, who are expert in relishing rasa with Radhika - this is His topmost adjective, Radhika-rasika - O ocean of mercy, please make me a kinkari (maidservant) of Your beloved. I ask for nothing else.
Not a maidservant of Your lotus feet. sva-priya-carana kinkari. You are the Lord of the life of the daughter of Vrsabhanu Maharaja. You are like a bee of Her lotus face - lola satpada. Meaning, one who is eager to taste the rasa (nectar) and satpada means a bumble bee.
That is why, here Radhika’s position has been given precedence. By establishing me at the lotus feet of Radhaji, please appoint me in Her service. I submit this prayer unto Your lotus feet.
I perform Your bhajana [devotional practice] for the sole reason that, being pleased with me, You may benedict me in this way. You can give all kinds of benedictions, but I don’t need other benedictions.
Although You are the Lord of the life of Radhikaji, however who is our Goddess? Srimati Radhika is our Goddess. May I become a maidservant at Her lotus feet, life after life. This is my only prayer.

*राधाष्टमी पर कैसे प्रार्थना करें*
हे श्यामसुन्दर, यदि आप हम पर प्रसन्न हैं तथा अपनी प्रिया की आविर्भाव तिथि से बहुत ही उल्ल्सित है तो हमारी एक प्रार्थना स्वीकार करो। वह प्रार्थना क्या है?
हे शिखण्ड को धारण करने वाले, मंद मुस्कान से युक्त, मनोहर मुरली को बजाने वाले, राधिका के जो रसिक हैं। कृष्ण का यह सबसे बड़ा विशेषण यह है कि वे राधिका के रसिक हैं। हे कृपानिधि, मुझे अपनी प्रियाजी की किंकरी बनाओ, हम आपसे और कुछ नहीं माँगते। अपने चरणों का किंकर नहीं, स्वप्रिया की चरण किंकरी।
वृषभानुनन्दिनी के आप प्राणनाथ हैं, उनके श्रीमुख के लोल षट्पद हैं। इसका क्या अर्थ है? [लोल का अर्थ है] रस के लोभी तथा षट्पद का अर्थ है भँवरे । इसलिए यहां पर राधिकाजी को प्रधानता दी गई हैं। [ हे कृष्ण] आप हमे राधिकाजी के चरण कमलों में स्थापन करके उनकी सेवा में नियुक्त कर दीजिए। मैं आपके चरणो में ऐसी प्रार्थना करता हूँ। आपका भजन मैं इसलिए करता हूँ कि आप प्रसन्न होकर मुझे यह वर प्रदान करें।
आप सब वरों को देने में सक्षम हैं किन्तु हमें और किसी भी वर की आवश्यकता नहीं है। आप राधिकाजी के प्राणनाथ हैं किन्तु हमारी ईश्वरी कौन हैं? श्रीमती राधिका। ईश्वरी के चरणों में मैं जन्म जन्म की दासी बन सकूँ बस यही हमारी प्रार्थना है।
