Translation

Verse 1

The moon shines bright, making the path past the elders' watch far and difficult; at every step, the eyes of the elders become a trap.

Verse 2

Upon that path, so very hard and far to travel, the graceful one nonetheless goes forth on her nocturnal tryst.

Verse 3

What can I say of the ways of love for Madhava? She who is devoted to you has, through that very love, conquered all three worlds.

Verse 4

Wherever that woman puts even the moon itself to shame, there too the five-arrowed Kamadeva relentlessly drives her onward with longing.

Verse 5

She met you in the forest bower, without any hindrance at all — Govinda Dasa says her heart's desire has now been fulfilled.
