Shri Krishna Madhuri · Pad 51
hamāro rasika raṁgīlo shyāma
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Our Shyāmasundara is the crest-jewel of rasikas. Seeing His blue-complexioned body, which is extremely beautiful like the blue sapphire, innumerable Kāmadevas feel embarrassed. There always overflows the nectar of love from His side-glances and His sweet smile is excessively pleasing to the heart. Playing sweet melodies in His flute, He steals the heart of the maidens of Braja. He performs divine sports day and night, sometimes with His cowherd friends and sometimes with the maidens of Braja. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that Bhagwan Shaṅkara and Shukadeva paramahansa always feed their eyes with Shyāmasundara’s incomparable and indescribable beauty in Vṛindāvana.
