Vidyapati Thakur Poems

A new Brindaban I see
And renewed each barren trees;
New flowers are blooming
...

Season of honey when sweets combine,
Honey bees line upon line,
From sweet blossoms honeyed feet
Honied blossoms and honey sweet.
...

In the spring moonlight the lord of love
Thro' the amorous ravel's maze doth move;
The crown of love love's raptures proves;
For Radha his amorous darling moves
...

When you stay before my eyes
You make me feel your love is firm,
But out of sight how different you are!
How long does false gold shine?
...

As I guard my honor,
My love in a foreign land
Ravishes beauties
Who belong to others.
...

Her tears carved a river
And she broods on its bank,
Hurt and confused.
You ask her one thing,
...

Swelling breasts, hard, like golden cups.
Those wanton glances have stolen my heart,
O beautiful one, protest no longer.
...

Radha’s glances dart from side to side.
Her restless body and clothes are heavy with dust.
Her glistening smile shines again and again.
...

Her hair dense as darkness,
Her face rich as the full moon:
Unbelievable contrasts
Couched in a seat of love.
...

The moon has shone upon me,
the face of my beloved.
O night of joy!
...
