Calata Rama Sundara Syama lyrics

calata rāma sundara śyāma pāṅcanī kācani vetra veṇu muralī-khuralī gāna ri

calata rama sundara syama pancani kacani vetra venu murali-khurali gana ri

चलत राम सुन्दर श्याम पाङ्चनी काचनि वेत्र वेणु मुरलीखुरली गान रि

Balarama and Beautiful Syama Krsna are moving along holding rods for driving the cows, ropes for binding them, canes, and the flute from which issues sweet notes.

priya śrīdāma sudāma meli taraṇī-tanayā-tīre keli dhabalī śaṅalī āo ri āo ri phukari calata kāna ri

priya sridama sudama meli tarani-tanaya-tire keli dhabali sanali ao ri ao ri phukari calata kana ri

प्रिय श्रीदाम सुदाम मेलि तरणीतनयातीरे केलि धबली शङली आओ रि आओ रि फुकरि चलत कान रि

Krsna calls out, "O dear Sridama! O Sudama! Come let us play together on the bank of the daughter of Tarani (the Yamuna). As He walks, Krsna calls out for His pet cows, "Dhabali! Syamali! Come along."

bayase kiśora mohana bhāti vadana indu jalada-kāṅti cāru-candri guñjā-hāra vadane madana-bhāna ri

bayase kisora mohana bhati vadana indu jalada-kanti caru-candri gunja-hara vadane madana-bhana ri

बयसे किशोर मोहन भाति वदन इन्दु जलदकाङ्ति चारुचन्द्रि गुञ्जाहार वदने मदनभान रि

Young is His age; charming is His beauty. His face is a veritable moon, and His complexion is like that of a dark cloud. He is decorated with a peacock feather on His head and a necklace of gunja seeds. His face appears like that of the god of love.

āgama-nigama-veda-sāra līlāya karata goṭha-bihāra nasira-māmuda karata āśa caraṇe śaraṇa dāna ri

agama-nigama-veda-sara lilaya karata gotha-bihara nasira-mamuda karata asa carane sarana dana ri

आगमनिगमवेदसार लीलाय करत गोठबिहार नसिरमामुद करत आश चरणे शरण दान रि

Although He is the essence or the only deity worshipped in the agamas, nigamas and Vedas, He is relishing the pastime of hearding the cows. Nasir Mehmood clings to the hope that He may give him refuge at His lotus feet.
