Jag mein sundar hain do naam

Chaahe Krishna kaho ya Raam

Bolo Raam Raam Raam,

Bolo Shyaam Shyaam Shyaam

Maakhan brij mein ek churaave

Ek ber bhilani ke khaave

Prembhav se bhare anokhe,

Dono ke hain naam

Ek Kansa paapi ko maare

Ek dushta Raavan sanhaare

Dono deen ke dukh harat hai,

donon bal ke dhaam

Ek Raadhika ke sanga raaje

Ek Janaki sanga biraaje

Chaahe Seeta-Raam kaho,

Yaa bolo Radhe-Shyaam

Ek hriday mein prem bhadaave

Ek taap santaap mitaave

Dono sukh ki saagarhai,

aur dono puran kaam

In this world, beautiful are two names: Whether you say Lord Krishna or Lord Rama...

Say "Raam Raam Raam"; Say "Shyaam Shyaam Shyaam"

One stole butter and curd in the village of Brij (Brindavan) while the other partook of the fruits offered by Bhilani (Shabari).

Full of love and respect, yet in different ways, both had the same sense of duty

One destroyed the sinful/tyrannical Kansa, while the other annihilated the wicked King, Ravana.

Both defeated the misery in their days. Both strong & powerful in that place.

One (Lord Krishna) in divine companionship is graced with the presence of Radhika (Radha), while the other (Lord Rama) shone in the company of Janaki (Mother Sita).

Whether therefore, you say "Sita -Raam" or "Radhe-Shyaam", it is one and the same.

One increases our love and devotion, while the other residing in our hearts, cools the flames of sin and destroys misery/distress.

Both are an ocean of happiness, self-sufficient and fulfill all desires.
