Continuing my Krishna verses

कस्तूरीतिलक: कथं तव हरे भाले ममोट्टङ्कित:
त्वद्वक्ष:स्थलवासिकौस्तुभमणिर्लग्नो ममोर:स्थलम् ।
क्षिप्रं वासगृहं मदीयमधुना धत्ते व्रजाभां कथम्
जाने नैव किमेतदद्भुतमहो स्वप्नायमानोऽस्म्यहम् ।।८२९।।

O Krishna, how did your mark of musk came to be engraved on my forehead, and how did the Kaustubha jewel residing on your chest come to appear on my chest? How did this dwelling of mine start shining like Vraja? What is this wonderful thing happening? Oh, I am probably dreaming.
