Hori Khelata Gaura Kisora
Youthful Gaura plays Holi in the lap of Gadadhara, the rasavati nari (the maiden full of rasa). Drops of perspiration cover His face, and the hairs of His body stand on end.
Overcome by bhava, tears flow from His eyes. With Narahari He sings of the rasa of Vraja, while Mukunda, Murari and Vasu dance with delight.
Again and again He faints in the lap of Gadadhara Pandita. Seeing this, all His companions are lost in bhava. Then the Lord lies stretched out in a temple of forest bowers.
Falling to the ground He cries, “Where is My flute? Where are Govardhana and the bank of the Yamuna? Where are the malati, juthi and campaka flowers?”
Sivananda says: Hear these words full of rasa. Wherever the Lord and Gadadhara are, there is a mine of rasa.
