Shri Radha Madhuri · Pad 39
lalī kī ati matavālī chāla
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
The gait of Vṛishabhānunandinī, the Queen of rāsa is extremely intoxicating, seeing which even Nandalāla, who is famous in the three worlds as the crest-jewel of all who walk intoxicatingly, becomes miserable. It is only because of having seen Kishorī Jī’s intoxicating gait that young-ones of swans have hidden themselves in Mānasarovara in embarrassment because initially they were very proud of their graceful gait. Similarly, intoxicated forest-elephants have hidden themselves in dense forests. Looking at this lovely, intoxicated gait of Kishorī Jī, the great, pure-hearted paramahansas like Janaka, Sanaka, Shukadeva etc. immediately lose their trance. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that none can fathom the fortune of those maidens of Braja who are blessed with the right of beholding such indescribable eternally graceful gait.
