5.Devotion through Love (Hari Bhakti)
Dialogue
Mayuria:
Oh! Dear Radha, come let us proceed
See! Lord Krishna has arrived.
See there, he is swinging on the swing.
Radha:
Even I want to join him on the swing.
Mayuria:
Yes, Yes
Let us all go together
And dance the 'Raas' dance
Of love between the Lord and devotee.
See even the Gops, (men) have come.
Come let us all join and dance together
Song:
Swing (Sawan Mein Jhoola)
Sakhis (Female friends):
The Lord 'Gopala' is swinging in the spring,
Dear Radha also swings in love with Him.
The Gops and Gopis
Together dance the 'Raas' dance
Relate the pranks of 'Kanha'
Lord smiles and looks askance.
"Close your eyes", says The Lord
In a bid to outsmart
"But we can still see you O' Lord
As you dwell in our heart"
Note: Gopala, Shyam, Kanha, Krishna are all names of the same Lord Krishna.
Aummmm peace peace peace
And so ends Radha's devotional anthology chapter 5.
