marakata-darapana barana ujora hera-ite prati anga ananga agora
Translation

His complexion is bright like an emerald mirror; to look upon each of his limbs is to be overwhelmed by Cupid himself.

na bhujalumki kahala aruna nayana hanala ata-e kusuma-sara bana
Translation

She could not even lift her gaze, so overcome — her eyes turned red; so surely did the flower-arrows strike her.

e sakhi kahe bhetalumnanda-nandana madira gahana dahana bhela candana
Translation

This sakhi says, "I have met the son of Nanda" — yet now, in his absence, even the deep, intoxicating forest has become like burning sandalwood to her.

taikhane dakhina pabana bhela bama saha-i na pariye himakara-nama
Translation

At that very moment the southern breeze turned adverse; she could not even bear to hear the name of the cooling moon.

sahaja seja kamala-dala pati kulabati yubati le-u nija sati
Translation

On a natural bed spread with lotus petals, let the chaste young woman of good family go and take her place there.

tamhi rahala mana locana lagi dhairaja laja dure gela bhagi
Translation

There her mind remained fixed, her eyes held fast; patience and shame both fled far away.

ki phala ekala bikala-parana gobinda-dasa kaha milaba kana
Translation

What use is there in remaining alone with a troubled heart? Govinda Dasa says: go and meet Kanu.

About Marakata Darapana Barana Ujora

This Govinda Dasa Kaviraja pada compares Krishna's dark complexion to a polished emerald mirror, then turns to the disorienting effect of separation on the senses — sandal paste, normally cooling, burning like fire, and the gentle moon becoming unbearable to even hear named — before urging the listener simply to go and meet him.
