LYRICS:

(1)

āhā ki dekhi go baḍā-i kadambera tale

taḍita jaḍita yaiche naba jaladhare

(2)

śyāmacāndera upare dhabala cāndera kalā

tāhāra upare śobhe timirera mālā

(3)

tāhāra upare kibā indradhanu sāje

emana adbhuta rūpa kebā dekhiyāche

(4)

indradhanu jiniyā se bhurū dhanu-chaṭā

gobinda-dāsera mana kare laṭapaṭā

TRANSLATION

Aha! What did I see under a kadamba tree? It was like a new raincloud embraced by lightning.

It was like a glistening white full moon above a dark new moon. Above those two moons glistened a garland of darkness.

Above that garland was a rainbow. What was that wonderful form I saw?

The effulgent archer’s bows of that form’s eyebrows defeated the rainbow. That form enchanted Govinda dāsa’s heart.

Remarks/ Extra Information

This song is to be sung in Raga Suhai.
