Lyrics & Meaning of amRitahuni [abhang]

[HariKrishna]

amRitahuni [abhang] (rAga: bhimpalAs, tALa: Eka)
Composer: Haridaas
Artist / CD: Sudha Raghunathan / The Essential Album

Requesting both lyrics and translation. Also, can someone confirm language - this is Marathi, correct?

[Lakshman]

I found this on the net. Corrections will be needed:

amrutahuni god naam tuze dewa
man maze keshwa ka ba n ghe

sang pandhariraya kai karu yashi
ka roop dhyanashi n ye tuze

kiratni baista nidre nagvile
man maze guntale vishysukha

haridas garjati harinamachy kirti
naye mazya chitti nama mahne

[Pratyaksham Bala]

amrutAhunI gODa - by sant nAmadEva in marATHI language

amrutAhunI gODa nAma tujhE dEvA
mana mAjhE kEshavA kA bA na ghE

sAnga paNDHarIrAyA kAya karu yAnsI
kA rUpa dhyAnAsI na yE tujhE

kirtanI baisatA nidrE nAgavilE
mana mAjhE guntalE viSayasukhA

haridAsa garjatI harinAmAcyA kirtI
nayE mAjhyA citI nAmA mhaNE

I was suspecting this was a Naamdeva composition. However, the label on the CD said "Haridaas." Is this another epithet for Naamdeva?

Also, does any one have a translation?

Here is my attempt at translating this beautiful Abhanga. It is abhanga by Sant Namadev

amrutAhunI gODa nAma tujhE dEvA – Oh God (dEvA)Your (tujhe) name (nAma) is sweeter (gOda) than a nectar (Amrutahuni)

mana mAjhE kEshavA kA bA na ghE – My (mAjhE) mind (mana) is Keshva then why (kA ) can’t I see you (bA na ghE)

sAnga paNDHarIrAyA kAya karu yAnsI – Oh lord of Phandarpur – Please tell (sAnga) me what (kAya) do I do (karu) with this one (yAnsI - my mind)?

kA rUpa dhyAnAsI na yE tujhE – Why (kA) can’t I see your (tujhE) roop(rUpa - image) in my mind- ( that is in a state of meditation -dhyAnAsI)

kirtanI baisatA nidrE nAgavilE – When I sit (baisatA) to sing in your praise (kiratni) I am spoilt or snatched (nAgavilE) by sleepiness (nidrE)

mana mAjhE guntalE viSayasukhA – My (mAjhE) mind (mana) is engaged/interested (guntalE) in materialistic pleasure (viSayasukhA)

haridAsa garjatI harinAmAcyA kirtI – your devotes (haridAsa ) are singing with passion/loudly (garjati) Harinamachya (name for vitthal) kirtI

nayE mAjhyA citI nAmA mhaNE - - (you are) not coming(nayE ) my (mAjhyA) chitti (focus of mind) iti Nama says (nAmA mhaNE)
