Heraite Syamara Canda
Bhajan | Govinda Dasa Kaviraja
Verse 1
hera-ite śyāmara-canda
kore āgori gorī-mukha mochata
basana ḍhulāyata manda
Verse 2
dinamaṇi-kiraṇa malina mukha-maṇḍala
ghāme tilaka bahi gela
komala caraṇa tapata patha-bāluka
ā;pata dahana sama bhela
Verse 3
karpūra tāmbula adharahi deyala
candana lepa-i ańga
śyāmara ańga paraśe naba nāgarī
bāḍhala prema-tarańga
Verse 4
kuñja-kuṭīra gharaśeja manohara
madhukara śruti-dhara bhābe
gorī śyāma duhu karata kutūhali
kahatahi gobinda-dāsa
Verse 1
At the very sight of the moon-like dark one, the fair one's face brightens forth; slowly her garment slips loose.
Verse 2
Her face, dimmed by the sun's rays, its tilaka mark washed away by sweat; her tender feet, on the burning sand of the path, as though scorched by fire itself.
Verse 3
Camphor-scented betel is placed upon her lips; her limbs are smeared with sandalwood paste. At the touch of Shyama's body, her waves of love swell higher still.
Verse 4
In the forest cottage, the enchanting bed of leaves; the bee, as if listening, hums along; the fair one and the dark one both delight in each other's play — so tells Govinda Dasa.
