dekho shyaama shyaama shyaama raTata raadhaa bharamaaee
kuMjana me DhooAODa firee DhooAODa na paaee |
DhooAODana ko chalee baavaree naara
sakala sudha budha bisaara
karegee saaree jaga hasaaee ||
Devnagri
देखो श्याम श्याम श्याम रटत राधा भरमाई
कुंजन मे ढूँड फ़िरी ढूँड न पाई ।
ढूँडन को चली बावरी नार
सकल सुध बुध बिसार
करेगी सारी जग हसाई ॥
Meaning
Radha is looking for Lord Krishna in the Koonjan garden. She has forgotten everything other than her beloved and is desperately trying to find him while enchanting his name absentmindedly. Seeing her in that state of trance, people are making fun of her.
