What is the raga of this song "Gopala Gokula Vallabhi".This has been rendered by Bombay Jayashree and it is present online in musicindiaonline.
I think this song has been composed by TulasiDas in Hindi.
Can someone post the lyrics of this song.Thanks

From Bombay Jayashree's rendition,these were the lyrics I could catch.

gOpAla gOkula vallabhI priya gOpa gOsuta vallabham

I too gleaned the words from BJ's rendition. Your version seems to make more sense. Sorry I don't have the meaning for it.
But I remember seeing the lyrics in some book that I have. I will look for it.
From what I know of hindustani music it sounds like the rAgA kAmOd.

I found the verse in Prachina sampradaya hai bhajanAmrtam by A.K.Gopalan. This has two extra lines. But I am not sure of some words(?) since the script was in tamil. Here it is:

gOpAla gOkula vallabhI priya gOpa gOsuta vallabham
caraNAravindam aham bhajE bhajanIya suramuni durlabam
ghana shyAma kAma anEkacapi lOkAbhirAma manOharam
kinjalka vasana kishOra mUruti pUri guNa karuNAkaram
shira kEkibiccha? vilOla kuNDala aruNa vanaruha lOcanam
kunjAvatamsha? vicitra sab? anga dhAtu bhava bhaya mOcanam
kaca kuTila sundara tilakabrU-rAgAmayanga samAnanam
apa haraNa tulasidAsa trAsa vihara brndA kAnanam
