(Kavitt)
Ras Hi Son Taru Thadhe, Ras Hi Son Paat Hare,
Ras Hi Son Phul Bhare Ras Hi Jivayo Hai. [1]
Ras Hi Son Phal Bhavai, Ras Hi Son Jal Bhavai,
Ras Hi Son Ann Bhavai, Ras Saar Gayo Hai. [2]
Ras Ho Son Rup Bhale, Ras Hi Son Bol Bhale,
Ras Hi Ki Gari Bhali, Ras Hi Lubhayo Hai. [3]
Ras Hi Anand Rup, Ras Ki Surati Anup,
'Rasau Vai Sah' Shyaam Vedan Men Gayo Hai. [4]
- Braj Ke Kavitt
It is through rasa (nectar) that trees stand and flourish; through rasa, their leaves remain green; through rasa, they become laden with flowers; and it is rasa that gives them life. [1]
It is rasa that makes fruits delightful, water refreshing, and food pleasing. Thus, the poet sings of rasa as the very essence of everything. [2]
It is rasa that makes beauty enchanting and words sweet. Even a playful insult filled with rasa is delightful, and it is rasa alone that attracts and captivates. [3]
Rasa is itself the very embodiment of happiness, and its beauty is beyond compare. For this reason, the Vedas themselves proclaim the Supreme Lord Śyāmasundara as “Raso vai saḥ”— He is indeed the very embodiment of rasa. [4]
