Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh sakhi! The following are all kissing Shyāmasundara’s mouth. His curly black tresses are bending and swaying and kissing the mouth. The earrings embellished in ears are also bending and swaying and kissing the mouth. The besara in the nose, too, is curving, swaying and kissing the mouth all the time. The flute, always held by Shyāmasundara in His lotus-hands, is also bending and swaying and osculating His mouth. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that during the rāsa dance, the maidens of Braja, too, kiss Shyāmasundara’s mouth bending and swaying in the intoxication of love.
