Sadhina Bhartrika
AI-drafted translation — pending review
O beautiful dark one, fashion upon my body a splendid and varied attire.
Here, upon my fair chest, O Saure, apply lines of leaf-patterns with drops of musk.
O wearer of the peacock-feather crown, beautifully adorn the mass of my curling locks with a peacock feather like Your own.
Here, fashion with matchless skill a pair of clove-blossom ornaments and let them rest against both my ears.
About Sadhina Bhartrika
A short, playful sringara verse by Srila Rupa Goswami in which Radha asks Krishna -- addressed as "Syamala Sundara" and "Saure" -- to personally adorn her: painting musk designs on her chest, arranging a peacock feather in her hair to match His own crown, and fitting clove-blossom ornaments to her ears, casting Krishna in the tender role of Radha's own beautician.
