Sri Gita Govinda Mahakavyam - Sri Jayadeva Ashtapadi – 20 - Lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||










Radharani who has beautiful eyes like antelope was pleased with the soothing words of Keshava, she was attired in finest garments and dazzling jewels, she graciously approached the Nikunjjagriham/creeper home to be with Keshava on the creeper bed, “Oh! Radhe, Sakhi,  he has pleased you with most compassionate words, he bowed at your lotus feet, at this moment he is waiting for your arrival, in order to perform various amusements on the river banks decked in fresh alluring flowers, Oh! Varanane,/ Beautiful young woman takes immense pleasure in the amorous sport with Madhu and follows him always.  Oh! Radhe, walk towards him in an attractive gait with the heaviness of your large and high raised bosom, let the magnificent anklets make the tingling noises while you walk with full of passion like a swan.  Oh! Radhe, Oh! Beautiful young lady/Tharuni, listen to the most enthralling sounds of the swarm of honey bees, listen to the cries of cuckoos that sincerely follows the command of cupid arrows of Manmatha Oh! Radhe, creepers are moving restlessly in the breeze, freshly sprouted leaves of creepers are signaling you to improve your pace without making any delays, Oh! Radhe, your limbs are quivering like waves that are appropriate to remain in the embrace of Hari, precious ornaments decked on the large raised bosom spreads intense luster of the pure watercourse.  Oh! Radhe, all the young maidens of Vraja know that you are well prepared for the battle of amorous sport, Oh! Passionate woman, immerse in the clamoring sounds of passionate and succulent sport with your companion shamelessly.  Oh! Radhe, your beautiful fingernails appear as cupid arrows of Manmatha, depend on them and move gracefully, let Hari aware of your presence by tinkling noises of bracelets.”  The above are the glorious verses composed by Sri Jayadeva, it is a marvelous garland of joy and love, let it adorn the neck of fervent devotees of Hari at all times. “Oh! Sakhi,  Krishna must be thinking of you and he will assume that you will look at his face affectionately, you will tell him fairy tales, you will repeatedly embrace him, and you will immerse in a passionate sport with him.  Your companion must be anxiously waiting for your arrival in the hours of darkness; he must be excited, he must be soaked in perspiration, his heart must be throbbing with various emotions.  Oh! Sakhi, he is pleasing, decked in attractive flowers of Thapiccha on his ears, he is decorated with the blue lotus flower on forehead, he is smeared in highly fragrant musk on all over his body, and your beloved companion is impatiently waiting in the creeper home to perform the amorous sport with you, darkness has embraced all over the place beautifully.  A group of unrepressed marvelous women of saffron complexion decked in various ornaments surrounded him, like the Thamala leave of blue surrounded by darkness, lovely Krishna is in the middle of beautiful young maidens of golden complexion.”
