Ami Jamuna Puline
Lila Kirtana Song 2
(āmi)
jamunā-puline, kadamba-kānane, ki herinu sakhī! āja (āmār)
śyāma vaṁśīdhārī, maṇi-mañcopari,
kare' līlā rasarāja
Oh sakhi! My dear girlfriend! What have I seen today? In a kadamba grove on the banks of the Yamuna, a beautiful blackish boy holding a long flute (vamsi) is seated upon a throne of jewels, performing His pastimes as the King of all transcendental mellows!
kṛṣṇa-keli
sudhā-prasravana (tāra)
aṣṭa-dalopari, śrī rādhā śrī hari,
aṣṭa-sakhī parijana
Situated upon the eight petals of the jeweled altar is Sri Radha and Sri Hari surrounded by Their attendants the eight chief gopis. There Krsna performs His amorous pastimes which are just like a waterfall of nectar.
(tāra)
sugīta-nartane, saba sakhī-gaṇe, tuṣiche yugala-dhane (takhon)
kṛṣṇa-līlā heri', prakṛti-sundarī,
vistāriche śobhā vane
By singing sweet songs and by dancing nicely, all the gopis satisfy the treasured Divine Couple. Thus I am beholding Krsna's pastimes with His beautiful female consorts expanding throughout the splendorous forest.
(āmi)
ghare nā jāiba, vane praveśiba, o līlā-rasera tare (āmi)
tyaji' kula-lāja, bhaja vraja-rāja, vinoda minati kare
For the sake of the mellows of such pastimes, I will not go to my home, but I will instead enter into the forest. Renouncing all shyness due to fear of family members, just worship the Lord of Vraja. This is the humble submission of Bhaktivinoda.
