There is of gentle mien a wishing vine,
Dispensing bounty, grace and love divine;
Of sweet ambrosia the endless store,
Like ocean fathomed not and without shore.
O my good soul, for refuge hasten there,
To her who doth the name of Radha bear. 28

Sri Radha Rasa Sudhanidhi 29
sri-raadhikaam nija-vitena sahaalapantim
sonaadhara prasrmara-cchavi manjarikaam/
sindura samvalita mauktika pankti sobhaam
yo bhaavayed-dasana kundavati sa dhanyah//
Whoever perceives in meditation
The sweet and amorous conversation
'Twixt Sri Radhika and her lover dear,
A nectar stream of eloquence will hear;
To see her lips with lustrous crimson sheen,
With budding smiles that beautifully gleam;
Her jasmine bud like teeth all stained with red,
Like rows of pearls with vermilion spread;
Whom her of the fine teeth doth contemplate,
He is most highly bless'd and fortunate. 29

Sri Radha Rasa Sudhanidhi 30
peetaarunacchavim-ananta-tadil-lataabhaam
praudaanuraaga-mada-vihvala-caaru-murtim/
premaaspadaam vraja-mahi-pati-tan-mahisye
govinda-van-manasi taam nidadhaami raadhaam//30
The golden dawn-like radiance I bear
Within my mind of Sri Radha the fair;
Who shines with abundance of dazzling light,
Like coruscation of the lightning bright;
Whose person is with sweet beauty endued,
Fraught with pride, passion and beatitude.
To Vraja's pious king and queen revered,
She is as much as Govinda endeared. 30

sri-raadhike tava kadaa bhavitaasmi daasi// 31
O Goddess of the bower-house divine,
In Vrndavan, when will this maid of thine
With peacock plumes and goonja beads prepare
A crown for your beloved one to wear;
And will I then present respectfully,
O Radhike, that fair crown unto thee? 31

Sri Radha Rasa Sudhanidhi 32-33
sanketa-kunjamanu-pallavamaastaritum
tattat-prasaadamabhitah khalu samvaritum/
tvaam syaamacandram-abhisaarayittm dhrtaase
sri-raadhika mayi vidhehi krpaakataaksam// 32
I shall the trysting bower decorate
To gain your favour and propitiate,
With tender shoots and flowers overspread,
I shall prepare the amorous play bed;
Then guide you to the assignation place,
To meet with Syama of the moon bright face.
O Sri Radhike, as along we go,
Will you your side glance of mercy bestow? 32
duraadapaasya svajaansukhamarthakotim
sarvesu saadhanavaresu ciram niraasah/
varsantemeva sahajaabhuta saukhyadhaaraam
sri raadhikaa carana-renumaham smaraammi// 33
Abandoning afar all that depends
On joy derived from family and friends;
And wealth and gain in millions multiplied;
Having forsaken all fond hopes beside,
The excellent disciplines to maintain,
And long despair perfection to attain.
But dust from Sri Radhika's refined,
I shall fondly contemplate in my mind,
Whence showers of inherent nectar flows,
And wondrous joy and happiness bestows. 33

Sri Radha Rasa Sudhanidhi 34
vrndatavi prakata manmatha-koti-murteh
kasyaapi gokula-kisora-nisaakarasya/
sarvasvasamputamiva stana saata-kumbha
kumbhadvaya smaramano vrsabhaanuputryaah 34
The adolescent moon of Gokul bright,
Who doth a million Cupids' beauty slight,
In Vrindavan his glory manifests.
His fondest treasures are the golden breasts,
Like golden love vessels beyond compare,
Of Vrishabhanu Raja's daughter fair.
In deep contemplation pure and refined,
Those breasts recall to memory, O mind. 34

Sri Radha Rasa Sudhanidhi 35
saandraanuraagarasasaarasarah sarojam
kim vaa dvidhaa mukulitam mukhacandrabhaasaa/
tannootanastanyugam vrsabhaanujaayaah
svaanandaseedhumakarandaghanam smaraami// 35
Like swelling lotuses that rise above
The lake of intense passion, joy and love;
Or else that bloom under the radiance
Of her fair moon-like shining countenance;
In meditation in my mind I bear
The breasts of Vrishabhanu's daughter fair,
The vessels of self ecstasy replete,
Filled with nectar and ambrosia sweet. 35
