Subject: [INDOLOGY] Continuing Mādhava verses

Dear friends, here are more Mādhava verses this morning:

नन्दितभुवन यशोदानन्दन गोपालबाल कृतलील ।

माधव तव माधुर्यं जगदखिलं गोकुलीकुरुते ।।

Delight of the World, Son of Yaśodā, a Cowherd Child performing his plays, O Mādhava, your sweetness turns this whole world into Gokula.

गोकुलगगनविहारिन् नवनीरद नीलमेघ रुचिराङ्ग ।

धृत्वा माधवरूपं तनुषेऽतनुतोषमार्तिहर कृष्ण ।।

O Shining Dark Blue Cloud with new water wandering in the sky of Gokula, assuming the form of Mādhava you produce immense delight, O reliever of suffering.

छाया तव जगदातपविनाशिनी नन्दयति विश्वम् ।

श्याम घन विहर मन्दं जगदानन्द प्रसर दिक्षु ।।

Your shade, destroying the scorching, pleases the world. O Blue Cloud, wander slowly. O Delight of the World, spread in all directions.

माधव मनसिजदर्पं दलयसि निजरूपसौकुमार्येण ।

पुनरपि छलयसि मनसिजरूपं धृत्वा हरन् चित्तम् ।।

O Mādhava, you crush the pride of Cupid with your own delicate beauty. Again, assuming the form of Cupid you tease stealing hearts.

दधि चोरयन् न तुष्टश्चोरयसि त्वं मनांसि सर्वेषाम् ।

वस्त्राण्यपि गोपीनामचोरयस्त्वं महाचौर: ।।

Not satisfied with stealing yoghurt, you steal everyone’s hearts. You, the Great Thief, also stole the clothes of the milkmaids.

यमुनातीरविहारिन् स्पर्शात्ते वारि कज्जलाभमभूत् ।

कृष्णत्वं तव कृष्ण प्रसरति सर्वत्र किं करिष्याम: ।।

O Dweller on the bank of Yamunā, the water of Yamunā became darkened by your touch. O Dark One, your darkness spreads everywhere. What can we do?

धाव धाव रे माधव राधा याता लतागृहात् कुपिता ।

प्रतीक्षमाणा सुचिरं प्रतारिता सा त्वया कस्मात् ।।

“Run, run, O Mādhava. The angry Rādhā left the bower. She waited for you for a long time. Why did you cheat on her?”

तिष्ठ तिष्ठ मृगनयने राधे मा धाव मां परित्यज्य ।

सदये क्षमस्व चरणागतापराधं शरण्ये त्वम् ।।

“Wait, wait, O Dear-Eyed Rādhā, don’t run and don’t leave me. O Compassionate One, My Refuge, please pardon my transgression. I have come to your feet.”

यत्र त्वं त्तत्राहं या त्वं सोऽहं कथं यामि कुत्र ।

अवेहि राधे माधवमनिशं त्वत्त: स्थितमदूरम् ।।

“Where you are, there I am. I am you. How can I go somewhere else? O Rādhā, know me, Mādhava, to be always near you.”

क्वचित् कदाचित् राधे वृक्षान्तरितो भवामि पलमात्रम् ।

तददर्शनं मदीयं क्षमस्व नाहं गतोऽन्यत्र ।।

O Rādhā, occasionally, for a short time I become distanced by some trees. Please pardon that loss of view of mine. I have not gone anywhere else.”
