Achyutam Keshavam

Achyutam Keshavam Krishna Damodaram, Rama naraynam Janakivallabham, (praising the Lord Krishna, with different names of Vishnu) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan aate nahi Bhakta Meera ke jaise bulate nahi, (Who says God does not come? You don’t call Him with the devotion of Meera) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan khaate nahi, Ber Shabri ke jaise khilate nahi, … Achyutam … (Who says God does not eat? You don’t feed him like how Shabari fed him) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan Sote nahi, Maa Yashoda ke jaise sulate nahin, (Who says God does not sleep? You don’t make him sleep like how Mother Yashoda did) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan naachte nahi, Tum Gopi ke jaise nachaate nahin, Achyutam… (Who says God does not dance? You don’t make him dance like how Gopis did) Naam Japate chalo kaam karte chalo Har samay Krishna ka dhyaan karte chalo Yaad aayegi unko kabhi na kabhi Krishan darshan to denge kabhi na kabhi …..Achyutam … (Keep praising the Lord, continue working ... Remember Him all the time. Krishna will appear one day or the other)

In Hindi - 
अच्चुतम केशवं कृष्ण दामोदरं,
राम नारायणं जानकी बल्लभम ।

कौन कहता हे भगवान आते नहीं,
तुम मीरा के जैसे बुलाते नहीं ।

कौन कहता है भगवान खाते नहीं,
बेर शबरी के जैसे खिलाते नहीं ।

कौन कहता है भगवान सोते नहीं,
माँ यशोदा के जैसे सुलाते नहीं ।

कौन कहता है भगवान नाचते नहीं,
गोपियों की तरह तुम नचाते नहीं ।

नाम जपते चलो काम करते चलो,
हर समय कृष्ण का ध्यान करते चलो ।

याद आएगी उनको कभी ना कभी,
कृष्ण दर्शन तो देंगे कभी ना कभी ।

Really appreciate your contribution. I have been searching for the wordings of the bhajan. It's great. May Goddess Sarawati bless you.

Thnaks for the lyrics, but if you dont translate it quite so literally, you would want to interpret something like

Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan khaate nahi,
Ber Shabri ke jaise khilate nahi, … Achyutam …

Who says God does not come?Its just that you aren't calling Him with the devotion as Meera did.

Dont mean to make corrections, just for people whose hindi isn't as good ...

Thanks for pointing it out.
Surely I will update the Hindi Translation correct.
