The festivity of Janmashtami will be incomplete without singing bhajans or hymns in praise of lord Krishna. There are various bhajans describing the feats and accomplishments of Lord. Few of the bhajans are listed below to be sung during Janmashtami.
Khul Gaye Jail ke Tale
Jab janmain Shri Bhagwan jail darmyan murliya wale
khul gaye jail ke tale
Dewki ne pati ko jagaya tha sapne ka hal sunaya tha
le jao putra Yashoda ke karo hawale
khul gaye.........
Vasudev ji ki bedi tuti thi takdir Kans ki phuti thi
ho gaye mast sab so gaye pahare wale
khul gaye......
Vasudev ji chale agadi ko le kar ke Krishna Murari ko
pahunche Yamuna tat yamuna bhare ubare
khul gaye.....
Vasudev ji ne bhed na paya tha prabhu ji ne pair badhaya tha
phunche Yashoda ke nikat muraliya wale
khul gaye..........
Ghar ghar main batat badhai hai ham sabne khushiyan manai hai
pad gaye Kans raja ki jan ke lale
khul gaye jail ke tale
Jab janmain Shri Bhagwan jail darmayan muraliya wale
khul gaye jail ke tale

Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Manihari ka bhesh banaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Galiyon mein shor machaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya,
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya
Radha ne suni Lalita se kahi
Mohan ko turant bulaya
Shyam chudi bechne aaya,
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya
Chudi laal nahi pehnu
Chudi hari nahi pehnu
Mujhe Shyam rang hai bhaaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Radha pehnan lagi
Shyam pehnane lage
Radha ne haath badaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya
Radha kehne lagi
Tum toh chhaliya
Bade dheere se haath dabaya
Shyam chudi bechne aaya,
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya,
Manihari ka bhesh banaya
Shyam chudi bechne aaya,
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya
Chhaliya ka bhesh banaya,
Shyam chudi bechne aaya.

Chadar lambi taan na so
Chadar lambi taan na so, Shyam japo Shyamjapo
Jiwan ki ghariya vyartha na kho, Shyam japo Shyam japo.
Duniya mein aake kya kiya, ghari bhar na prabhu ka naam liya
Vishayan de vich jindagi na kho, Shyam japo Shyam japo.
Shyam toh sukh ka saar hai, jiwan ka aadhar hai
Uske siwa marg na koo, Shyam japo Shyam japo
Bhakti mein manua dhyan dhar, ujraa ghar aabad kar
Agyan ka bande neend na so, Shyam japo Shyam japo

Bhajo Radhe Govinda
Bhajo Radhe Govinda
Gopala Tera pyara naam hai
Gopala Tera pyara naam hai
Nandalala Tera pyara naam hai
Mor mukat maathe tilak viraje
Gale vaijanthimala Gale vaijanthimala
Koi kahe Vasudev ka Nandan
Koi kahe Nandalala Koi kahe Nandalala
Bhajo Radhe Govinda . . .
Gaj aur Grehe lade jal bitar
Jal mein chakra chalaya Jal mein chakra chalaya
Jab jab bhid padi bhagaton par
Nanggi pairin dhaya Nanggi pairin dhaya
Bhajo Radhe Govinda.

Mere Pyare Madan Gopal
Choti choti gaiyan, chote chote gawaal,
chote se mere, madan gopal
mor mukut mathe saaje, gale mein swaranmaal,
chote se mere madan gopal
Kaano mein karanphool, haathon mein ratnajadhit hath haar,
chote se mere madan gopal
pitamber saaje tan pe, uspe sundar motiyon ki maal
chote se mere madan gopal
pairon mein jhanjhar sohe, jab nache hari angana dwaar.
Chote se mere madan gopal
Bhaye sab ke mann ko bal gopal,Karke solah shringar,
chote se mere Madan Gopal

Nandlal Tohri Mahima Aparampar
Mere pyare nandlal, kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan,
janam liya mathura nagariya, karne danavon ka sanghar
kaise karoon tohri mahima ka Bakhan.
Janam data thi Devki Mata, Yashoda ko bhi diya maa ka samman
kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan
Putana ko mukt kiya, har liye Kansa ke pran
kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan.
Gopiyon sang raas kiya, Radha ko diya sampurna pyar.
Kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan.
Chaliyon sang chal kiya, deeno sang seedha vyavhar,
kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan.
Pandavon ka saath diya, Kauravon ko diya pachhar,
kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan.
Mere pyare nandlal kaise karoon tohri mahima ka bakhan

Darsh Do Mohe Girdhari
More pranpriye Krishna, more pyare Girdhari,
Darsh do mohe, More pran chhootat jat.
Main neech nirbal prani, chahta jana chhodd duniya ka sath,
Darsh do mohe, more pran chhootat jat.
moh maya ke is bhanwar se ,do mujhe ab ubhar,
Darsh do mohe, more pran chhootat jat.
Karm ki gathariya ho gayi bhari, karo mera uddhar,
Darsh do mohe , more pran chhootat jat.
Sumiran kar tera antim kshan mein, mujhe milega swarg ka dwar,
Darsh do mohe , more pran chhootat jat.
More Pyare Girdhari. Sun lo ab arz humari,
Darsh de mohe , more pran chhootat jat

Rang le khudko, Murari ke rang
Jeevan ke sab rang hain jhoote
Rang lo mohe, apne rang mein Murari.
Mrigtrishna ke is jaal se ab karo mukti humari,
Rang lo Mohe, apne rang mein Murari.
Dukh-sukh, paap-punya hain aane jane.
Rang lo mohe, apne rang mein Murari
Mayajaal ke rang hai kacche, bas tohre naam ke pukke,
Rang lo mohe, apne rang mein Murari
Tohre naam se hoga is bhav sagar ka paar
Rang lo mohe, apne rang main Murari
