Translation:
The divine couple, Sri Radha and Krishna are my life, my soul—my refuge. In a forest of small kadamba tress, on the bank of the Yamuna, I will seat the divine couple on a throne made of jewels. I will anoint Their dark and fair forms with sandalwood paste scented with cuya, and I will fan Them with a camara whisk. Oh, when will I behold Their moonlike faces?
I will string together garlands of malati flowers and place them around Their necks. Then I will offer tambula scented with camphor to Their lotus mouths. With the permission of all the sakhis, headed by Lalita and Visakha, I will serve the lotus feet of Radha and Krishna.
I, Narottama Dasa, the servant of Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu, longs for this service to the divine couple.
