Dekhite

Siddhi Lalasa Song 2

1

dekhite
dekhite, bhulibo vā kabe, nija-sthūla-paricoya nayane
heribo, braja-pura-śobhā, nitya
cid-ānanda-moya

When will I be able to leave this plane of my gross bodily identity far behind? Within a split second, I will completely forget about all these false external affairs and behold the exquisite beauty of the transcendental realm of Vraja, which is completely paraded with eternal, conscious bliss.

2

bṛṣabhānu-pure, janama loibo, yāvaṭe
vivāha ha'be braja-gopī-bhāva, hoibe swabhāva, āno-bhāva
nā rohibe

I shall then take birth in Barsana, the town of King Vrsabhanu, and I will be married nearby in the town of Yavata. My sole disposition and character shall be that of a simple cowherd girl, and I shall not know any other mood.

3

nija-siddha-deha, nija-siddha-nāma,
nija-rūpa-swa-vasana rādhā-kṛpā-bale, lobhibo vā kabe,
kṛṣṇa-prema-prakaraṇa

I shall obtain my own eternal spiritual body, transcendental name, and specific type of beauty and dress for the pleasure of Krsna. And when, by the power of Sri Radha's causeless mercy, will I be allowed entrance into the pastimes of divine love of Krsna?

4

jamunā-salila- āharaṇe giyā, bujhibo
yugala-rasa prema-mugdha
ho'ye, pāgalinī-prāya, gāibo
rādhāra yaśa

As I go with a water pot on my head to draw water from the Yamuna river, I shall cherish remembrance of the mellows of conjugal love that unite Sri Radha with Krsna. Thus being enchanted by Their divine love, I will madly sing the glories of Sri Radha just like a raving lunatic.
