Āju Snehete Bihwola Haiyā
Dhānaśī-rāga
Now everyone is overcome with spiritual love. Accompanied by his brāhmaṇa friends, Vallabha Acārya performs the adhivāsa ritual.
How many austerities did Lakṣmīpriyā's mother perform to attain such a daughter? Dressed in fine garments and decorated with glorious ornaments, Lakṣmīpriyā sits on a splendid throne in the beautiful courtyard. Her friends are plunged in spiritual bliss.
At an auspicious moment she is offered a fragrant flower-garland. Her heart is joyful. Her limbs are effulgent. No heart is peaceful and quiet. Unnoticed, the demigoddesses stand on four sides and watch.
Conchshells, bells, and a great variety of musical instruments sound. There are graceful singing and dancing. The poets recite glorious poems. The ladies offer gifts. No one is peaceful. Narahari offers respectful worship.
