Nidhuvane Madhava Khelato Range lyrics

nidhuvane mādhava khelato raṅge vraja vanitā phāgu dei śyāma aṅge

nidhuvane madhava khelato range vraja vanita phagu dei syama ange

निधुवने माधव खेलतो रङ्गे व्रज वनिता फागु देइ श्याम अङ्गे

Madhava is blissfully sporting in Nidhuvana. The Vraja-gopis throw phaguwa (colored powder) on Syama's body.

kānu phāgu deyolo sundarī aṅge mukha moṛāi dhani kori bhaṅge

kanu phagu deyolo sundari ange mukha morai dhani kori bhange

कानु फागु देयोलो सुन्दरी अङ्गे मुख मोऋआइ धनि कोरि भङ्गे

Krsna throws phaguwa on Sundari Radha's body and Dhani (fortunate Radha) turns Her head in a gesture.

phāgu raṅge gopī sab caudike beṛiyā śyāma aṅge dei phāgu añjali pūriyā

phagu range gopi sab caudike beriya syama ange dei phagu anjali puriya

फागु रङ्गे गोपी सब चौदिके बेऋइया श्याम अङ्गे देइ फागु अञ्जलि पूरिया

The gopis surround Them on all sides, playing phaguwa, throwing handfuls of phaguwa on Syama's body.

phāguyā khelite phāgu uṭhilo gagane vṛndāvane taru-latā rātula varaṇe

phaguya khelite phagu uthilo gagane vrndavane taru-lata ratula varane

फागुया खेलिते फागु उठिलो गगने वृन्दावने तरुलता रातुल वरणे

During this game of phaguwa the phaguwa pervades the whole sky, turning all the trees and vines of Vrndavana red. 5-6) Red peacocks dance, red cuckoos sing, red bees drink red honey from the red flowers, the wind is red, the Yamuna's water turned red and the sky is so red that one cannot distinguish the directions anymore.
