Suna Suna E Sakhi Nivedana Toya
Listen, listen, O sakhi, to this plea of mine — you know the pain of my heart.
My lord sits among his clever companions; speak in such a way that no shame comes of it.
Among the sakhis I know you to be the cleverest; guarding my honor, bring about our meeting.
Now devise such a plan by which union with Kanu may come about unobstructed.
If, while life still remains in me, I attain my lord, then Govinda dasa will sing your glory.
About Suna Suna E Sakhi Nivedana Toya
A short Brajabuli pada by Govinda Dasa Kaviraja spoken in the voice of a gopi confiding in her sakhi: she begs her confidante to carry her plea to Krsna tactfully, without inviting scandal, and to arrange a meeting before viraha takes her life. The bhanita in the final line, typical of Govinda dasa's padas, ties the verse to the poet's own signature even as it stays inside the heroine's voice.
