Jaya Jaya Radha Krsna (I)

Arati Kirtana Song 3 (Sri Yugala Arotik)

1

jaya
jaya rādhā-kṛṣṇa yugala-milana ārati
karowe lalitādi sakhī-gaṇa

All glories, all glories to the meeting of the transcendental pair, Sri Sri Radha and Krsna! The gopis, headed by Lalita, perform the arati ceremony for Their pleasure.

2

madana-mohana
rūpa tri-bhaṅga-sundara pītambara
śikhi-puccha-cūḍā-manohara

The three-fold bending form of Krsna, the attractor of Cupid, dressed in yellow silk dhoti and wearing a crown decorated with peacock feathers, is simply captivating to the mind.

3

lalita-mādhava-vāme
bṛṣabhānu-kanyā sunīla-vasanā
gaurī rūpe gune dhanyā

Sitting to the left of the charming Lord Madhava is the daughter of King Vrsabhanu, dressed in a lovely deep blue sari. Her complexion is the color of molten gold, and all characteristics of Her beauty and qualities are highly praiseworthy.

4

nānā-vidha
alaṅkāra kore jhalamala hari-mano-vimohana
vadana ujjvala

She is decorated with various shimmering, sparkling ornaments. Her face is so splendorous that it enchants the mind of Lord Hari.

5

viśākhādi
sakhī-gaṇa nānā rāge gāya priya-narma-sakhī
jata cāmara ḍhulāya

The gopis of Visakha's group sing many enchanting songs in various tunes, while the topmost class of gopis, known as the priya-narma-sakhis, soothes Radha and Krsna by waving camara fans.

6

śrī-rādhā-mādhava-pada-sarasija-āśe bhakativinoda
sakhī-pade sukhe bhāse

Hoping to attain the lotus feet of Radhika and Madhava, Bhaktivinoda happily swims in the ocean of bliss found at the feet of the damsels of Vraja Dham.
