näyätaù sakhi nirdayo yadi çaöhas tvaà düti kià düyase svacchandaà bahu-vallabhaù sa ramate kià tatra te düñaëam paçyädya priya-saìgamäya dayitasyäkåñyamäëaà guëair utkaëöhärti-bharäd iva sphuöad idaà cetaù svayaà yäsyati Translation Sakhé – “O sakhi, Rädhä! He did not come.” Rädhä – “If that merciless, cruel-hearted, two-faced cheater does not come, why should you be upset?” Sakhé – “He has many beloveds and he freely enjoys amorous love with them without the slightest restraint.” Rädhä – “What fault is that of yours? Look! Today my heart has been broken by the burden of intense eagerness. Being attracted by the qualities of my most beloved Shri Kṛṣṇa, my heart will go to meet with him by itself.”
