CommentaryThe sakhé tells Rädhä, “Shri Hari is depleted from holding you in his heart for such a long time. He is scorched from deep within. Kämadeva has tormented him severely. He aspires to drink the sweetness of your red bimba-fruit lips, which are full of nectarean rasa. Therefore, my dear one, become the lustre of your hankering lover’s limbs! You have purchased him simply by casting your glance upon him for just a second. Now completely decorate the body of your foot-servant, Shri Kṛṣṇa. Without inhibition, adorn his chest at once. Why are you shy? Why deliberate any further? Why hesitate?” This verse features rüpaka and utprekñä alaìkäras. The chanda is çärdülavikréòita. |
