महाभावोज्ज्वलच्चिन्तारत्नोद्भावितविग्रहाम सखीप्रणयसद्गन्धवरोद्वर्तनसुप्रभाम
The love of the gopis for Krsna is full of transcendental ecstasy. It appears to be a brilliant jewel, and enlightened by such a transcendental jewel, Radha's body is further perfumed and decorated with kunkuma.
- Verse 2
kāruṇyāmṛta-vīcibhis tāruṇyāmṛta-dhārayā lāvaṇyāmṛta-vanyābhiḥ snapitāṁ glaptendirām
karunyamrta-vicibhis tarunyamrta-dharaya lavanyamrta-vanyabhih snapitam glaptendiram
कारुण्यामृतवीचिभिस तारुण्यामृतधारया लावण्यामृतवन्याभिः स्नपितां ग्लप्तेन्दिराम
In the morning Her body is bathed in the nectar of compassion, in the afternoon in the nectar of youth, and in the evening in the nectar of luster itself. In this way the bathing is performed, and Her body becomes as brilliant as the cintamani jewel. She eclipses the goddess of fortune Laksmidevi.
- Verse 3
hrī-paṭṭa-vastra-guptāṅgīṁ saundarya-ghusṛṇāñcitām śyāmalojjvala-kastūrī-vicitrita-kalevarām
hri-patta-vastra-guptangim saundarya-ghusrnancitam syamalojjvala-kasturi-vicitrita-kalevaram
ह्रीपट्टवस्त्रगुप्ताङ्गीं सौन्दर्यघुसृणाञ्चिताम श्यामलोज्ज्वलकस्तूरीविचित्रितकलेवराम
Her dress is composed of various kinds of silken garments, which may be compared to Her natural shyness. Her beauty is more and more enhanced, being decorated with kunkuma, which is compared to beauty itself, and with blackish musk, which is compared to conjugal love. Thus Her body is decorated with different colors. The kunkuma is red and the musk is black. 4-5) Her ornaments embody the natural symptoms of ecstasy: trembling, tears, jubilation, stunning, perspiration, faltering of the voice, bodily redness, madness, and dullness. In this way the entire body is bedecked with these nine different jewels. Over and above this, the beauty of Her body is enhanced by Her transcendental qualities, which hang as a flower garland on Her body. The ecstasy of love for Krsna is known as dhira and adhira, sober and restless. Such ecstasy constitutes the covering of Sri Radha's body, and it is adorned by camphor.

She always keeps Her hands on the shoulder of Her gopi friend, who is compared to Her youthful beauty, and although She is highly qualified with so many spiritual assets, She is nonetheless affected by the Cupid known as Krsna. Thus She is defeated.

O Gandharvika, Sri Radha, just as Lord Krsna never rejects a surrendered soul, please don't reject me.
