Translation

Verse 1

Her eye, turning in every direction, appears just like a lotus flower gently stirred by a soft breeze.

Verse 2

Radha enters the pleasure-forest, with the pain of Cupid's arrows rising anew at every single step.

Verse 3

Placing her feet softly, slowly, one after another, she moves in a manner that echoes the very gait of an elephant.

Verse 4

Her gait would even delight the very king of elephants — so says this verse composed by the poet Ramananda Raya.
