hera-ite śyāmara-canda kore āgori gorī-mukha mochata basana ḍhulāyata manda
Translation

At the very sight of the moon-like dark one, the fair one's face brightens forth; slowly her garment slips loose.

dinamaṇi-kiraṇa malina mukha-maṇḍala ghāme tilaka bahi gela komala caraṇa tapata patha-bāluka ā;pata dahana sama bhela
Translation

Her face, dimmed by the sun's rays, its tilaka mark washed away by sweat; her tender feet, on the burning sand of the path, as though scorched by fire itself.

karpūra tāmbula adharahi deyala candana lepa-i ańga śyāmara ańga paraśe naba nāgarī bāḍhala prema-tarańga
Translation

Camphor-scented betel is placed upon her lips; her limbs are smeared with sandalwood paste. At the touch of Shyama's body, her waves of love swell higher still.

kuñja-kuṭīra gharaśeja manohara madhukara śruti-dhara bhābe gorī śyāma duhu karata kutūhali kahatahi gobinda-dāsa
Translation

In the forest cottage, the enchanting bed of leaves; the bee, as if listening, hums along; the fair one and the dark one both delight in each other's play — so tells Govinda Dasa.

About Heraite Syamara Canda
