TRANSLATION

(Refrain) O lotus-eyed one, don't shrink from Me. O resting-place of love, I will decorate You.

 

1) Lift the cloth a little from Your breasts and I will draw wonderful pictures of makara fishes there.

 

2) Radha, don't move Your cheek. I will draw a very neat picture there.

 

3) Today Your eternally beautiful form arouses passionate desires in My heart.
