TRANSLATION
-
Gone is the vanity of male egoism, O Kana. Now I am Your faithful maidservant.
-
O Lord of Radha, in the groves of Vraja I will perform devotional service as a follower of one of the sakhis.
-
I will string together a necklace of forest flowers, and tulasi buds shall be the jewels of that necklace.
-
With utmost care I will place the garland in the hands of that confidential devotee, and she will take it with affection.
-
Then she will place the garland around both Your necks, while I watch in wonder from afar.
-
The confidant will then say to me, “Listen, O beautiful one, you should remain in this grove as my attendant.”
-
“Daily you shall string together beautiful flower garlands that will enchant Radha and Krsna.”
-
“The responsibility for your maintenance shall be mine. My cottage in the grove is yours.”
-
“When I serve Radha and Madhava, you will attend behind me.”
-
“After preparing tambula and bringing camphor, you will give them to me, knowing me to be yours.”
-
Bhaktivinoda, having heard all these instructions, bows down at the lotus feet of that confidential sakhi.
