Thanks for letting us know about your blog. Good luck with your effort in the cause of Hinduism. Hope you will not abandon this forum and keep visiting/posting here too.
Thanks for the encouragement, of course, I will continue to visit this forum.
I am translating a bhajan by surdas on my blog, I have some difficulty understanding the meaning of this line, maybe you can help?
प्रेम के बस नृप सेवा किन्हिं आप बने हरि नाई
prema ke basa nṛpa sevā kinhiṁ āpa bane hari nāī
Out of love the king served...???
Namast, Sahasranama,
I shall read your blog! Thanks for posting the link.
(And I shall help out by not suggesting meanings for that bhajan line. For I do not understand it and would be making up the translation completely. )

"I wait the power of one like thee, O Indra, gifts of a Helper such as thou art, Hero.
Strong, Mighty God, dwell with me now and ever."
Oṁ Indrāya Namaḥ.
Oṁ Namaḥ Śivāya.
Thanks Indraneela, I understand. I have found a translation online, but it wasnt really accurate, so I translated it myself, except for this line which I do not understand.

Did not mean to ignore your request for a translation, I am just not learned enough in Hindi to translate that line for you. Sorry.
No worries, I'll leave it untranslated.
Pranam Sahasranama
congratulations for the blog
I must say i love this bhajan but the verse you quote is not often sung.
I wonder which King would he have in mind and the meaning is bit difficult, direct translation could be, you became hari not.
gist of it for me would be you served the King despite of your status of the Lord off all
Jai Shree Krishna
Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.
My take,
Out of love, You put aside your (exalted) status as 'Hari' ( - the supreme Lord) and served the king (Arjun, as his charioteer).

I like this translation Believer come up with;
Out of love, You put aside your (exalted) status as 'Hari' and served the king.
Serving Arjun as his charioteer is a seprate line, besides he never was a King.
