Sri Gita Govinda Mahakavyam - Sri Jayadeva Ashtapadi – 23 - Lyrics and meanings




|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||








Gradually dearest companion of Vrinda/Radharani left the scene, Krishna witnessed Radharani who was tormented with the cupid arrows of Manmatha, her beautiful smile on wet lips, her heart was brimming with intense love/mystic love for Krishna, her eyes were fixed on the bed of creepers of freshly sprouted leaves, Hari began to speak compassionately “ Oh! Radhe, kindly listen to me, Narayana is all yours Oh! Kamini, kindly place your lotus feet on the bed of creepers made of freshly sprouted leaves, so that the dissolution of your lotus feet adorned in foot colors will get disappeared,  Oh! Radhe, you have walked so far to arrive in the creeper home, let me massage your feet with my lotus hands, therefore please be on the creeper bed with the tingling noises of your anklets.  Oh! Radhe, kindly speak a few compassionate words with that beautiful nectar trickling lotus-like face of yours, and the pain of separation is visible on large and high raised bosom through the finest garment attired.  Oh! Radhe, kindly remain in the embrace of me with your large and high raised bosom, so that it will eradicate all kinds of afflictions in your heart.  Oh! Radhe, Oh! Bhamini, I was living to obtain the taste of nectar from your lips, that wonderful nectar would appease the burning desire I was burning in the fire of separation.   Oh! Radhe, Oh! Shashimukhi who has the face of the full moon, your lustrous face and a ray of lights stretched up to the neck, kindly produce the mellifluous voice of cuckoo that would soothe my exhaustion, Oh! Radhe, your eyes are ashamed to witness me in a wretched state due to your groundless anger, therefore kindly leave your compassionate glances to soothe me from the affliction of cupid arrows.”  The above are the glorious verse of Sri Jayadeva describes the state of Madhurip who was besieged with the cupid arrows of Manmatha, virtuous people would take immense pleasure in the various pastime of Hari and mystic love of Radharani.  They blissfully immersed in the amorous sport and remained in the embrace of each other, they delightfully engaged in the battle of amorous sport, it seemed that  even the blink of eyes caused obstruction in their sweet conversation, eventually, she had exposed her supremacy in the amorous battle with Krishna, her eyes were red due to lack of sleep, redness of her lips was vanished due to prolonged kisses, her hair was disheveled and the flowers decorated were withered, she was soaked in perspiration, it was astounding, in the early hours of the morning  he was besieged by the cupid arrows of Manmatha, in this way he found immense bliss in the passionate sport with Radharani.
