ENGLISH TRANSLATION
1.O sage, when She went to the pavilion of amorous pastimes Radha did not see Lord Hari. Seeing the river that Viraja had become, She went home. 2.Seeing that His eternal beloved had become a river, Sri Krsna loudly wept on the beautiful shore of that Viraja River. 3.“O best, best of lovers, come to Me! O beautiful one, beautiful one, how can I live without you? 4.“By My blessing now become the most beautiful of women, and the empress of rivers. 5.:Now have a form more beautiful than the beautiful form you had. O chaste one, your previous form has now become a river.” 6.“Raise from the water and come to Me.” Taking a new form, and beautiful like Radha, she approached Lord Hari. 7.Wearing yellow garments and her lotus face smiling, with crooked eyes she gazed at the Lord of Her life and He gazed at her. 8.She was oppressed by the burden of her hips and thighs, and her breasts were swollen and high. 9.She was the most beautiful of beautiful women, and She was fortunate and glorious among women. She was the colour of a beautiful campaka flower and her lips were ripe bimba fruits. 10.Her beautiful teeth were like ripe pomegranate seeds,, her face was an autumn moon, and her eyes were blossoming dark lotuses.
