‘The sky is encompassed by clouds. <br />With the hue of Tama la trees <br />darksome appear the sites of woods. <br />This dear Ka hna <br />feels very timid at night. <br />O Ra dha! You therefore please <br />accompany him to reach home aright.’ <br />Thus by the words of King Nanda, <br />stepped ahead both Ra dha and Ma dhava <br />towards the tree of bowers on the way. <br />Glory to their plays of love, secret and gay, <br />on the bank of river Yamuna. <br /> <br />[Translated from Jayadeva’s Sanskrit Kavya “Gita-Govindam”]<br /><br />Harekrishna Meher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gita-govinda-first-verse/
