Radhe Pathi Munca Bhuri
AI-drafted translation — pending review
O Radhe, on this path to the tryst, set aside your great haste; move forward gently on your lotus feet, O tender one.
Alas, why do you not restrain your constant chatter? The very brightness of your teeth is dispelling the deep darkness around you.
May the darkness, dense and deep as the mass of your unrivaled hair, be softened by the glow of your fingernails, so that you may pass safely.
She, who forever holds his heart, walks on today free of fear; give yourself over completely to your welcome in this charming bower.
About Radhe Pathi Munca Bhuri
From Rupa Gosvami's stavamala tradition, this verse dramatizes the classic abhisarika-nayika scene: a sakhi urging Radha to hurry along a night path to her tryst with Krsna, yet warning her that the very brightness of her smile threatens to give away her hiding place in the dark. It closes with encouragement for Radha to set aside all fear and give herself over completely to the waiting kunja.
