Guest guest Posted March 22, 2002 Report Share Posted March 22, 2002 The Sports of Krishna With Damsels in Spring Canto I of the GitaGovinda opens with a delightful description of spring. Radha was in search of Krishna. Her thoughts were confounded by the fever of desire; she roved in the vernal morning among the twining vasantis covered with soft blossoms, when a damsel thus addressed her: Raga Vasanta, Yatitala lalita lavan galatapari silanakomalamala yasamiremadhu karanikara karambitakokilaku jitakun jakutireviharati haririha sarasa vasantenrityati yuvatijanena samamsakhi virahijanasya durante "The breeze that has wantoned round the delicate clove plants, breathes from the southern Malaya hills. The arbours resound with the notes of the koel and the buzzing of bees. In this lovely spring, when love cannot endure separation, Hari is enjoying himself and is dancing with young damsels. Friend Radha, go and seek Him."Do You ? Movies - coverage of the 74th Academy Awards® Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2002 Report Share Posted March 23, 2002 Hari Om. Radhe Govinda. While this is a very welcome posting since Sri Jayadeva's Madhura Bhakti is very sweet to enjoy, I regret to note that some errors crept in presenting the Sanskrit Sloka. With the kind permission of the author and with pranams to Sri Radha and Sri Krishna, I attempt a 'better' way. Raga Vasanta, Yati tala > lalita lavanga lata parisilana komala malaya samire > madhukara nikara karambita kokila kujita kunjakutire > viharati haririha sarasa vasante > nrityati yuvati janenasamam > sakhi virahi janasya durante I think the song is incomplete. If the author Ms.Shankaree sends the songs, I will be happy to edit them. I would feel it as a Bhagavat Kaimkaryam. Pl. forgive for any errors. It was not the intention to point fingers at any one, but a humble attempt to increase the reader's enjoyment. Thanks. Hari Om tatsat. Radhy Shyam.
