Siddhi Lalasa Song 8

1

varaṇe taḍita bāsa tārābalī kamala mañjarī nāma
sāḍe bāra barṣa bayasa satata svānanda-sukhada-dhāma

This maidservant has a complexion just like lightning, and she is wearing a sari which has star like decorations all over it. My name is Kamala Manjari. Eternally appearing to be only twelve-and-a-half years of age, I always live within the abode of Svananda-sukhada-kunja.

2

karpūra sebā lalitāra gaṇa rādhā yutheśvarī hana
mameśvarī-nātha śrī nanda-nandana āmāra parāṇa dhana

I render the service of preparing the camphor within the assembly of Lalita Sakhi, of whom Sri Radha is the leader and the center of all their activities. And the Lord of my mistress Radha is the delightful Son of Nanda Maharaja, Who is also the treasure of my life.

3

śrī rūpa mañjari prabhṛtira sama yugala sebāya āśa
abaśya se- rūpa sebā pābo āmi parākāṣṭhā su-bisbāsa

I always desire to execute conjugal service similar to that which is rendered by Sri Rupa Manjari and her associates. Thus I will certainly get utmost conviction and faith.

4

kabe bā e dāsī saṁsiddhi labhibe rādhā-kuṇḍe bāsa kori
rādhā-kṛṣṇa-seba satata koribe pūrba smṛti parihari

When will this maidservant thus attain such complete spiritual perfection, living by the banks of Sri Radha - kunda? I will eternally serve Radha and Krsna, and all of my previous memories will be automatically forgotten.
