The Wedding of Sri Radha-Krsna

Chapter 15: Verse 151-160

ENGLISH TRANSLATION 151.O sage, the servants of Lord Krsna’s servants defeat Kamadeva at every moment. Still, Lord Krsna, who is the supremely independent Personality of Godhead whose desires are always fulfilled, happily accepted defeat at Kamadeva’s hands. 152.Then Lord Krsna took Radha’s hand, placed Her on His chest, loosened Her garments, and kissed Her in four ways. 153.In Their amorous battle Her tinkling ornaments, the red ointment on Her lips, and the pictures and designs drawn with perfumes on Her limbs were all broken. 154.O sage, as They enjoyed amorous pastimes Her sindura tilaka and marks of red lac were all wiped away. 155.Filled with pleasure, and the hairs of Her body erect, Radha did not know whether it was day or night. 156.Pressing Her limbs against His, Lord Krsna, the most learned scholar of the Kama-sastra, enjoyed eight kinds of amorous pastimes with Radha. 157.Pulling smiling, crooked-eyed Radha to Him, Lord Krsna scratched and bit all Her limbs. 158.As They enjoyed amorous pastimes there was a beautiful sound from the tinkling of Radha’s bracelets, anklets, and tinkling ornaments. 159.In a secluded place Lord Krsna, the most learned scholar of the Kama-sastra, untied Radha’s braids and removed Her ornaments and garments. 160.Then Radha untied Krsna’s hair and removed His ornaments and garments. They were both expert in these pastimes. Neither was unhappy at this.
