Lyrics 

yamunā-tīra-vānīra-nikuñje mandaṃ āsthitaṃ |
prāha-prema-bharodbhrāntaṃ mādhavaṃ rādhikā-sakhī ||

nindati candanam indukiraṇam anu vindati khedam adhīram |
vyāla-nilaya-milanena garalam iva kalayati malaya-samīram ||1||

mādhava manasija-viśikha-bhayād iva bhāvanayā tvayi līnā |
sā virahe tava dīnā ||dhruvapadaṃ||

avirala-nipatita-madana-śarādiva bhavadavanāya vīśālam |
sva-hṛdaya-marmaṇi varma karoti sajala-nalinī-dala-jālam ||2||

kusuma-viśikha-śara-talpam analpa-vilāsa-kalā-kamanīyam |
vratam iva tava parirambha-sukhāya karoti kusuma-śayanīyam ||3||

vahati ca calita-vilocana-jala-bharam ānana-kamalam udāram |
vidhum iva vikaṭa-vidhuntuda-danta-dalana-galitāmṛta-dhāram ||4||

vilikhati rahasi kuraṅga-madena bhavantam asama-śara-bhūtam |
praṇamati makaram adho vinidhāya kare ca śaraṃ nava-cūtam ||5||

dhyāna-layena puraḥ parikalpya bhavantam atīva durāpam |
vilapati hasati viṣīdati roditi cañcati muñcati tāpam ||6||

prati-padam idam api nigadati mādhava tava caraṇe patitāham |
tvayi vimukhe mayi sapadi sudhā-nidhirapi tanute tanu-dāham ||7||

śrī-jayadeva-bhaṇitam idam adhikaṃ yadi manasā naṭanīyam |
hari-virahākula-ballava-yuvati-sakhī-vacanaṃ paṭhanīyam ||8||
