TRANSLATION
1)
Madhava is blissfully sporting in Nidhuvana.
The Vraja-gopis throw phaguwa
(colored powder) on Syama's body.
2)
Krsna throws phaguwa on Sundari
Radha's body and Dhani
(fortunate Radha) turns Her head in a gesture.
3)
The gopis surround Them on all sides, playing phaguwa, throwing handfuls of phaguwa
on Syama's body.
4)
During this game of phaguwa the phaguwa
pervades the whole sky, turning all the trees and vines of Vrndavana
red.
5-6)
Red peacocks dance, red cuckoos sing, red bees drink red honey from the red
flowers, the wind is red, the Yamuna's water turned
red and the sky is so red that one cannot distinguish the directions anymore.
7)
The birds sing Radhe jaya! Radhe jaya! and Madhava Ghosa's eyes are soothed
when he sees this.
REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:
This is sung in Raga Basant
in Ektala.
