Mrgamada Candana Kore Kori Sakhigana

mṛgamada candana, kore kori sakhīgaṇa, variṣaye phula gandha rāje śrama-jala bindu bindu, śobhā kore mukha indu, adhare muralī nāhi bāje
Translation

Holding musk and sandalwood in their hands, the sakhis shower fragrant flowers upon them; drop by drop, beads of perspiration adorn Krishna's moon-like face — the flute does not play now on his lips.

hāsya vilāsa rasa, sarasa madhura bhāṣa, narottama manoratha bhoru duhuka vicitra veśa, kusuma racita keśa, locana mohana līlā koru
Translation

Their laughter, their playful mellow mood, their sweet and juicy conversation — these fulfil Narottama's heart's desire; the wondrous attire of both of them, their hair adorned with flowers, as they perform pastimes that enchant the eyes.
