Radha la Belle Bouvière de Vraja
En anglais
priyâr janama- dibasa âbeshe, ânanda bharalo tanu,
nadiyâ nagare, brishabhânupure, udoy korolo janu.
gadâdhara-mukha, heri punoh punoh, nâche gorâ natarây,
bhâb anubhab, kori sangi sob, mahâ mahotsab gay.
dadhir sahit, haladi milito, kalase kalase dhâli,
priyogon nâche, nânâ kâch kâche, ghana diyâ hulâhuli.
gourânga nâgara, rasero sâgaro, bhâber taranga tây,
jagata bhâsilo, e heno ânanda, e dâs ballâbi gây.
“Sri Gourânga Mahâprabhu’s body displayed all the symptoms of
ecstasy on Priyâji’s (Râdhârâni’s) birthday, for He was overflowing
with vraja-bhâv. It seemed as if the hero of Nadia had appeared in
Vrishabhânupur1 (in the mood of Srimati Râdhârâni). Goraa
Natarây2 danced in joy as He glanced again and again at
Gadâdhar’s face. He expressed numerous bhâvas and sang with
all of His associates in the grand festival. The devotees splashed
pitchers of yoghurt and turmeric water on the dancers while they
dance in gay abandon. Gourânga Nâgar is in an ocean of ras—
moreover He is now overflowing with bhâv. Poet Ballabi dâs says,
‘The entire world is floating in this bliss.’”

bhâdra shuklâshtami tithi, bishâkhâ nakshatra tathi,
shrimati-janama sei kale,
madhyadin gata rabi, dekhiyâ bâlikâ-chhabi,
jaya jaya dei kutuhale.
brishabhânupure, prati ghare ghare,
joy râdhe sri radhe bole,
kanyâr chândmukh dekhi, râjâ hoilo maha sukhi,
dân dei brâhman sakale.
nânâ drabya haste kori, nagarer joto nâri,
âilâ sobe kirtidâ mandire,
anek punyer phale, daiba hoilâ anukule,
e heno bâlikâ mile tore.
moder mone heno loy, ei to mânush noy
kon chhale kebâ janamilâ,
ghanashyâm dâs koy, nâ koroho samshoy,
krishna-priyâ sadoy hoilâ.
“It was the eighth phase of the bright lunar month of Bhâdra
(September-October), Vishâkhâ1 was on the rise and the sun was
overhead when baby Srimati Râdhârâni appeared on earth. King
Vrishabhânu cried “Jay!” when he saw Her. He was very happy
upon seeing his daughter’s moon-like face and he distributed gifts
amongst the Brahmins.
Everybody in Barsana was happy. They said, “Jay Radhe! Sri
Radhe!” The ladies came with gifts to Kirtidâ Mataji’s house to see
Râdhârâni. They told Kirtidâ, “You are lucky to have a daughter like
this. She is not an ordinary mortal. Only God knows who has taken
birth as your daughter and for what purpose.” Ghanashyâm dâs
says, “Have no doubt—she is none other than Lord Krishna’s
sweetheart and She has taken mercy on you.”
