Radha Harir Api Pulaki Vasantam

radha harir api pulaki-vasantam
gayati nija-mudam anu vikasantam

Their transcendental happiness in full bloom, Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa sing asong in vasanta-rāga.

A cuckoo sings a sustained fifth note. Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa imitate him, singing out to every direction.

Singing in imitation of his humming, Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa glorify a bumblebee who drinks the honey of a vāsanti flower in a secluded place.

As Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa sing Their lips touch. In this way They taste the sweetest nectar.

Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa glorify the very fragrant breeze that slowly limps from the Malaya Hills.

Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa hear beautiful instrumental music from a distant place. The corners of Their eyes happily dance in time with the music.

Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa's luster, which is like a monsoon cloud and lightning, makes the peacocks dance.

Note: Peacocks are fond of the monsoon season, and they show their pleasure by jubilantly dancing. They thought Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa were a raincloud and lightning, and so they naturally showed their pleasure to see Them.

The gopis fill the air with a limitless shower of fragrant powder.

Covered with drops of perspiration and colorful, fragrant powder, Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa are splendidly beautiful.
