दरस म्हारे बेगि दीज्यो जी ओ जी अन्तरजामी ओ राम खबर म्हारी बेगि लीज्यो जी

आप बिन मोहे कल ना पडत है जी ओजी तडपत हूं दिन रैन रैन में नीर ढले है जी

गुण तो प्रभुजी मों में एक नहीं छै जी ओ जी अवगुण भरे हैं अनेक अवगुण म्हारां माफ करीज्यो जी

भगत बछल प्रभु बिड़द कहाये जी ओ जी भगतन के प्रतिपाल सहाय आज म्हांरी बेगि करीज्यो जी

दासी मीरा की विनती छै जी ओजी आदि अन्त की ओ लाज आज म्हारी राख लीज्यो जी

The Disrobing of Draupadi

This deeply emotional scene captures one of the most poignant moments in the ancient Indian epic, the Mahabharata, where Queen Draupadi faces public humiliation in the royal assembly of Hastinapura. Having lost his queen in a game of dice, Yudhishthira leaves Draupadi vulnerable to the aggressive advances of Dushasana, who attempts to strip her of her garments before the silent council of elders. Stripped of earthly protection and surrounded by the complicit stillness of powerful men, Draupadi lifts her hands in desperate, absolute surrender to the divine. In her moment of utter peril, Lord Krishna intervenes from the celestial realms, miraculously extending her saree infinitely so that no matter how much is pulled, her dignity remains unblemished. This artwork stands as an eternal testament to faith, divine grace, and the absolute protection afforded to those who place their complete trust in the divine.
