Sundari Tuhu Badi Hrdaya Pasana

Song 16

1

(Refrain) sundari tuhu baḍi hṛdaya pāṣāṇa tuyā
lāgi madana - śarānale pīḍita jība-ite saṁśaya kāna

(Refrain) O beautiful girl, Your heart is like stone. Because of You Krsna is tormented, is wounded by Kamadeva's flaming arrows. Because of You Krsna's very life is now in doubt.

2

baiṭhali taru -tale pantha
nehāra-i nayāne galaye ghana lora
rā-i rā-i kari saghane japaye
hari tuyā bhābe taru deya kora

Sitting under a tree, Krsna watches the pathway. Tears glide from His eyes. " Radha! Radha!" is the japa He chants. He is overcome with love for You.

3

śītala nalinī-dala tāhe malayānila āgore lepa-i aṅga
camaki camaki hari uṭhata kata beri hānata madana-taraṅga

Bearing the fragrance of lotus petals, the cooling Malaya breeze anoints His body. Again and again He is startled. How many times does He stand up? Kamadeva's waves toss Him to and fro.

4

calaha bipine dhani ramaṇī-śiromaṇi
jhāṭa kari bheṭaha kāna
gobinda-dāsera bāṇī turite calaha
dhani kānu bhela bahuta nidāna

O beautiful girl, run to the forest. O crest jewel of all beautiful girls, go and meet Krsna. Govinda dasa says: O beautiful girl, quickly go. Krsna is on the verge of death.
