TEXT 23

kṛṣṇera adharāmṛta, tāte karpūra manda-smita,
sva-mādhurye hare nārīra mana
anyatra chāḍāya lobha, nā pāile mane kṣobha,
vraja-nārī-gaṇera mūla-dhana“


SYNONYMS

kṛṣṇera—of Lord Kṛṣṇa; adhara-amṛta—the sweetness of the lips; tāte—with that; karpūra—camphor; manda-smita—gentle smile; sva-mādhurye—by His sweetness; hare—attracts; nārīra mana—the minds of all women; anyatra—anywhere else; chāḍāya—vanquishes; lobha—greed; nā pāile—without getting; mane—in the mind; kṣobha—great agitation; vraja-nārī-gaṇera—of all the gopīs of Vṛndāvana; mūla-dhana—wealth.


TRANSLATION

“Kṛṣṇa’s lips are so sweet when combined with the camphor of His gentle smile that they attract the minds of all women, forcing them to give up all other attractions. If the sweetness of Kṛṣṇa’s smile is unobtainable, great mental difficulties and lamentation result. That sweetness is the only wealth of the gopīs of Vṛndāvana.”
