- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - 

प्रिय-मिलनं यदा भवेन् नूनं मे ।

स्वर्भुवनं प्रतीयते न्यूनं मे ॥ [०]

*

प्रविचलिते मनोद्रुमे सोत्कण्ठम्,

धैर्य-दलं सुकोमलं लूनं मे ॥ [१]

*

अनुपगते समाकुलं यामिन्याम्,

दृग्-युगलं प्रतीक्षया शूनं मे ॥ [२]

*

शशि-विरहे कुमुद्‍वती नो फुल्ला,

स्वं हृदयं प्रियं विना दूनं मे ॥ [३]

*

पिक-विरुते सुमञ्जुले सञ्जातम्,

ह्री-सहितं विमोहितं मौनं मे ॥ [४]

*

पुलकभरं समर्पितं माङ्‍गल्यम्,

प्रेममयं शुचि-स्मितं सूनं मे ॥ [५]

(इयं गीतिः प्रायः कहरवा-ताल- मध्यलयेन परिवेषणीया ।)

Priya-Milanam  (Union with Lover)

 

Sanskrit Song – Ghazal

Lyrics and Tuning By : Dr. Harekrishna Meher

*

 In this song, a blushful beloved wife expresses

before her maiden-friend some experiences of

pleasure and pain relating to union and separation

of her loving companion.

- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - –

Verily when I enjoy union with him,

heavenly abode seems very little for me. [0]

*

When the tree of mind

became unstable with anxiousness,

tender leaf of my patience

shivering became severed. [1]

*

In absence of my loving prop,

my eyes for the whole night

waiting and waiting for him

turned well swollen up. [2]

*

Lily feels no efflorescence

due to separation from Moon.

My heart felt woesome

because of his absence. [3]

*

When the sweet cooing of cuckoo

entered in the cavities of my ears,

my silence along with blush

became enchanted, overwhelmed. [4]

*

I offered him meanwhile

the flower of love, auspiciously fragrant,

filled with horripilation, and pleasant

with fair charming smile. [5]
