(Sawaiya)
Yadi Kuntal Kaale Sanvaare Hi The, To Kapolon Pai Yon Latkaana Na Tha.
Jab Kajjal Rekh Lagaayi Thi To, Tirchhe Drig Baan Chalaana Na Tha. [1]
Pahna Pat Peet Manohar To, Har Baar Use Fahraana Na Tha.
Yah Sundar Vesh Banaaya Tha To, Is Bhaanti Hamen Tadpaana Na Tha. [2]
- Braj Ke Sawaiya
O Śrī Kṛṣṇa, if Your hair was already perfectly adorned, then why allow those curls to dance upon Your cheeks and enchant us so deeply? When You lined Your eyes with kohl, why did You send forth the arrows of those sidelong glances that wound our hearts with love? [1]
If You wore the captivating yellow garment, then why keep fluttering it again and again, stealing every trace of our awareness? Having adorned Yourself in such beauty, why leave us to burn in the agony of separation? [2]
