chhaila bhala, aṭapaṭa bhesha banāyo

English meaning

Shyāmasundara reaches Kishorī Jī’s palace from Chandrāvalī’s house in the morning, and Kishorī Jī tauntingly says to Him - “Oh beloved Shyāmasundara! Today, You are having a very strange appearance. What a beautiful decoration of mihāvara on Your forehead as a result of shedding tears on Chandrāvalī’s feet! You have also given Your pītāmbara to her. Perhaps You now prefer red od̤hanī. What a lovely red od̤hanī this is! Your dishevelled hair and red eyes, because of passing the night awake, are looking very beautiful. Oh Beloved! You have now forgotten to keep with You even Your flute, which is dearer to You than Your own life. Have You left even Your flute with Chandrāvalī? To speak with unnecessary pauses, horripilation in the body and sweating – these are all the clear signs of Your guilt. Oh Shameless One! Glory be unto You! Today Your deception has clearly manifested itself. It was good of You to come here like this, otherwise how would this secret be revealed!” Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “After saying this, Kishorī Jī in great anger, did māna and darkness fell before Shyāmasundara’s eyes out of fear.”
