Campaka Dama Heri Murachi Rahu Madhava
AI-drafted translation — pending review
O Madhava, seeing a garland of campaka flowers she falls into a swoon; from her eyes streams of love pour forth. She constantly chants the mantra of your virtues -- truly this blessed lady enjoys your love.
The daughter of Vrishabhanu chants your name day and night; even in confusion she speaks no other. Though addressed sweetly by hundreds of thousands, even in dream she pays no heed to anyone else.
For you, jewel among men, she rolls upon the ground -- who could describe such deep devotion? She cannot even utter the syllables of your name "Ra" and "dha" fully, so overcome is she; tears flow like rain from a cloud.
Govinda Dasa submits this account at your feet, O Krishna -- know for certain that the only remedy for her suffering is your mercy alone.
About Campaka Dama Heri Murachi Rahu Madhava
A Bengali pada of Govinda Dasa Kaviraja describing, in words addressed directly to Krishna, the intensity of Radha's devotion -- swooning at the mere sight of a flowering campaka garland, chanting his name day and night even in dream, so overwhelmed that she cannot fully pronounce the two syllables of "Radha" -- before the poet closes by submitting that her only remedy is Krishna's own mercy.
