Madhava Tohe Ki Sikhayaba Ana
Bhajan | Govinda Dasa Kaviraja
Verse 1
madhaba tohe ki sikhayaba ana
gori alapi syama nata sancaru
aba tuhu bidagadha jana
Verse 2
murali milita adhara naba-pallaba
gayata kata kata raga
kulabati ho-i mandira chodi ayalu
sahite na pari biraga
Verse 3
murali chodi achu madhura alapite
saba jana nahi ana
kanthahi kantha meli abahi samujhiye
yati rne hota suthama
Verse 4
nirajana jani hrdaye aba dharabi
aichana gunabati bhasa
gunijana-laja aiche nahi hoyata
kahatahim gobinda-dasa
Verse 1
O Madhava, what more could I teach you? Conversing with the fair one, practicing your dark, artful moves — now you have truly become an expert in love.
Verse 2
With the flute joined to your lips like a fresh new shoot, you sing so many melodies; though I am from a good family, I left my home and came — I cannot bear this separation.
Verse 3
Set the flute aside now and speak only sweetly — no one else is here; join throat to throat, and understand at once what is truly good.
Verse 4
Knowing you now to be without fault, I shall hold you in my heart — so speaks this virtuous one; connoisseurs of love are never ashamed in such a way, says Govinda Dasa.
