Padavali: Jhulanotsava (Gauracandrika)

suradhunI-tIre Aju gaurakizora |
jhulana-raGga-rase pahu~ bhela bhora ||
vividha kusume sabe raca_i hindora |
saba sahacaragaNa Anande vibhora ||
jhulaYe gaura punaH gadAdhara saGga |
tAhe kata upajaYe prema-taraGga ||
mukunda mAdhava vAsu haridAsa meli |
gAota pUrava rabhasa-rasa-keli ||
nadIYa nagare kata aiche vilAsa |
rAmAnanda dAsa karata soi Aza ||


On the banks of Suradhuni today, Gaurakisora
became filled with the relish of the swing pastimes.
The swing was wholly decorated with various flowers
and all the companions were enthralled in joy.
Gaura again swinged in Gadadhara's company
with that, how many waves of prema arose?
Mukunda, Madhava, Vasu and Haridasa joined
singing of the joys of these pastimes of rasa.
How many pastimes does the hero of Nadiya have?
Ramananda Das is longing for this.
