About Harim Abhisara Sundari Sitavesa

A short dramatic song by Rupa Goswami, marked with a musical refrain as sung in one of his plays, urging Radha to meet Krishna dressed all in white on a night when the full moon itself threatens to expose her — her pearl necklace, sandal paste, and a water-lily tucked at her ear making the moonlit tryst shimmer even as it flirts with the danger of open moonlight.
