vipula-pulaka-pāliḥ sphīta-sīt-kāram antar-janita-jaḍimam-kāku-vyākulaṃ vyāharantī |
tava kitava vidhāyāmanda-kandarpa-cintāṃ rasa-jala-nidhi-magnā dhyāna-lagnā mṛgakṣī ||

For all so strong in Heaven itself
Is Love, that Radha sits drooping there,
Her beautiful bosoms panting with thought,
And the braids drawn back from her ear.

Edwin Arnold 1875, The Indian Song of Songs

And--angel albeit--her rich lips breathe
Sighs, if sighs were ever so sweet;
And--if spirits can tremble--she trembles now
From forehead to jewelled feet.

Edwin Arnold 1875, The Indian Song of Songs

And her voice of music sinks to a sob,
And her eyes, like eyes of a mated roe,
Are tender with looks of yielded love,
With dreams dreamed long ago;

Edwin Arnold 1875, The Indian Song of Songs

Long--long ago, but soon to grow truth,
To end, and be waking and certain and true;
Of which dear surety murmur her lips,
As the lips of sleepers do:

Edwin Arnold 1875, The Indian Song of Songs
