Nikunj Madhuri · Pad 22
yugalavara, niratata kuñja-kuṭīra
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Shrī Rādhā-Kṛishṇa are dancing in a bower alcove. The full moon is sprinkling its beams all over on the bank of the river Yamunā. A drove of black bees is hovering around the flowers and the half-blossomed buds. There is a cool and fragrant breeze blowing, carrying with it the sweet voices of parrots and peacocks. Lost in the ecstasy of each other’s love, Shrī Rādhā and Shrī Kṛishṇa are performing various intimate līlās of divine love. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “The mere remembrance of this divine scene is enough to cause horripilation in one’s body.”
