rādhe! yāvaṭe…

śrī-ratna-mandira mājhe, baḍa khaṭṭa su-virāje

aruṇa udaya yabe, tomāreta laye tabe

śoyāiba śrī-khaṭṭa upara

Verse 2

niśā kathā nāhi āne, kona parakāre jāne

ehata bhāvanā sakhī-kule

nija nija gṛhe yābe, e dāsī śuibe tabe

paurṇamāsī rahibe vyākule

Verse 3

kuñja-līlā habe gupta, sakale rahibe supta

prāte ravi udibe yakhana

uṭhibe e vidhikarī, gṛha-mārjjanādi kari

vastra saba rākhibe takhana

Verse 4

kuñja-līlā smṛti rase, ḍubiyā premera vaśe,

hā rādhe hā rādhe phukāriba

avaśa haibe deha, nā bujhibe citta keha

tuyā nidrā-bhaṅga karāiba

Translation

Verse 1

O Rādhe! In Yāvaṭa, in the midst of the gem-studded temple, a large bedstead is beautifully situated, which is very attractive. When the sun rises, then I will take You and make You sleep on that splendid bed.

Verse 2

The happenings of the night are not brought up, for what is the benefit for others to know? This is what the group of sakhīs feel. They will go to their own homes, and this maidservant will then go to sleep. Paurṇamāsī will remain anxious.

Verse 3

The pastimes in the forest bowers will remain hidden and everyone will continue to sleep. When the sun rises in the morning, following the proper standards, I will wake up and perform the household chores such as cleaning etc. Then I will arrange all the clothes.

Verse 4

In the rasa of remembrance of the pastimes within the forest bowers, and being drowned under the subjugation of prema, I will call out, ‘O Rādhe! O Rādhe!’ My body will become numb and nobody will understand my mind. I will then wake You up from Your slumber.
