Translation

Verse 1

The young prince of Vraja returns victorious from the pasture grounds, his radiant attire arranged by his own mother.

Verse 2

Ahead of him walk countless herds of cattle, wealth beyond counting; behind him come the boys of Vraja, calling out joyfully, "Hai! Hai!"

Verse 3

Dressed alike and matched in age, all moving to the same rhythm, Balarama walks at the left side of the moon-like dark one.

Verse 4

A peacock feather glitters upon his crown, and jeweled earrings sway and sparkle at his ears.

Verse 5

Upon his head, the moon of that feather; upon his lips, the flute; as he walks the path he makes so many playful, teasing gestures.

Verse 6

A yellow silken cloth fastened at his waist, he walks with a slow, swaying gait that surpasses even the finest elephant's.

Verse 7

His jeweled anklets ring out with a tinkling sound — Govinda Dasa exclaims, again and again, "How blessed, how blessed is this sight!"
