मेरी भव-बाधा हरौ, राधा नागरि सोइ।जा तन की झाँईं परैं, स्यामु हरित-दुति होइ॥
कहत, नटत, रीझत, खिझत, मिलत, खिलत, लजियात।भरे भौन में करत हैं, नैननु ही सौं बात॥
सतसैया के दोहरे, ज्यौं नावक के तीर।देखन में छोटे लगैं, घाव करैं गंभीर॥
In English
May Radha remove the obstacles of my worldly life — she whose reflection turns Shyam’s dark body green.
Speaking, refusing, pleased, annoyed, meeting, opening, ashamed — in a crowded room, they hold a whole conversation with their eyes.
