1.7.39
mano-bhavānandana candanānila prasīda re dakṣiṇa muñca vāmatām |
kṣaṇaṃ jagat-prāṇa nidāya mādhavaṃ puro mama prāṇa-haro bhaviṣyasi ||
"O delighter of mind-born love! O sandal breeze from the south, be gracious! Abandon your perversity! / O breath of the world, having placed Mādhava before me for a moment, you may take my life!"
But love is strong to pardon, slow to part,
And still the Lady, in her fancies, sang--
Wind of the Indian stream!
A little--oh! a little--breathe once more
The fragrance like his mouth's! blow from thy shore
One last word as he fades into a dream;
Bodiless Lord of love!
Show him once more to me a minute's space,
My Krishna, with the love-look in his face,
And then I come to my own place above;
1.7.39.p1
NOTE: {nidhāya iti ni-pāṭhāntaraḥ.}
[Note: {“having placed” is an alternate reading.}]
