Sri Gita Govinda Mahakavyam - Sri Jayadeva Ashtapadi – 14 - Lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||









Radharani has become distraught after seeing her close companions returning without Madhava, she suspected that Janardhana must be taking pleasure in the company of fortunate young maidens of Vraja, “  The young maidens who are attired in magnificent garments, long beautiful hairs decked in fresh alluring flower garlands must be taking immense delight in the company of Madhuripu.  These young maidens must be in a state of bliss remaining in the embrace of Hari, eventually their garlands and precious ornaments decorated on the large and high raised bosom must be intertwining during the passionate sport with Madhuripu.  The curly hair locks stretched on the moon-like faces of young maidens of Vraja must be multiplying their loveliness, and they must be tactfully consuming the nectar from the lips of Madhuripu, closing their eyes in a state of bliss.  The magnificent earrings adorned in the ears must be hanging close to their cheeks of the young maidens enhances the loveliness of them and the bell decorated waist belts must be making tinkling noises during the passionate sport.  These beautiful young maidens must be smiling shyly at the attractive glances of beloved Krishna, and they must be making various noises during the passionate sport with Madhuripu.  These beautiful young maidens must be in an extreme state of ecstasy and their body must be quivering in amorous sport and must be completely wrapped up with Madhuripu, and releasing a sigh of liberation.  These beautiful young maidens must be soaked in the droplets of perspiration from the amorous sport with Madhuripu, they must be feeling blissful staying in the embrace of Krishna/Ranadhira.”  The above are the glorious verses composed by Sri Jayadeva, which depicts the amorous sport of Lord Hari, which is capable to eradicate all the evil effects of the Kali era.
