TRANSLATION
(Refrain) Glancing at the Yamuna’s waters, Lord Krsna , the jewel of the wise, filled His flute with music. Now He was wild with Kamadeva’s desires.
- How many games did the king of dancers play and play with His gopa friends? Then, pushed by a certain desire, He left the boys’ company and walked alone on the forest path.
- With that flute-music He created a boat, a boat made of jewels, pearls, and coral, a boat with decks made of diamonds, a boat with seat after seat made of gold and jewels, a boat with many small bells that jangled as it moved.
- Lord Krsna , the wise king of heroes, entered that boat and set out from the Yamuna’s banks. Govinda
dasa says: As the boat moved, its many small bells jangled. Â
REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:
This is sung in Raga Dhanasri .
