Śrī Rūpa Mañjarī Kabe Madhura Bacane
śrī rūpa mañjarī kabe madhura bacane
rādhā-kuṇḍa mahimā barṇibe saṅgopane
अर्थ
When will Śrī Rūpa-mañjarī take me to a secluded place and with sweet words describe the glories of Rādhā-kuṇḍa?
e caudda bhubanopari baikuṇṭha niloya
tad-apekhā mathurā parama śreṣṭha hoya
अर्थ
"Beyond the fourteen worlds is Vaikuṇṭha, and beyond that is supremely glorious Mathurā.
mathurā-maṇḍale rāsa-līlā-sthāna jathā
bṛndābana śreṣṭha ati śuno mama kathā
अर्थ
"Within the circle of Mathurā, the best place is Vṛndāvana forest, the place of the rāsa-dance pastime. Please hear my words.
kṛṣṇa-līlā-sthala gobardhana śreṣṭhatara
rādhā-kuṇḍa śreṣṭhatama sarba-śakti-dhara
अर्थ
"Of the places of Kṛṣṇa's pastimes Govardhana is superior and Rādhā-kuṇḍa is best. It is glorious with all potencies."
rādhā-kuṇḍa mahimā to' koriyā śrabaṇa
lālāyita ho'ye āmi paḍibo takhana
अर्थ
Hearing Rādhā-kuṇḍa's glories, and yearning to go there, I will suddenly fall unconscious.
sakhīra caraṇe kabe koribo ākuti
sakhī kṛpā kori' dibe swārasikī sthiti
अर्थ
When will I fervently pray at a sakhī's feet? When will that sakhī mercifully give me my proper place in the spiritual rasas?
