Guru Kelucharan Mohapatra - Kuru Yadunandana -Jayadeva's Geeta Govinda

Kuru Yadunandana
In the concluding ashtapadi from Jayadeva's 14th Century Geeta Govinda, Radha expresses herself to her Lord Krishna in a tone of affectionate authority. Yadava hero, your hand is cooler than sandal balm on my breast. Paint a leaf design with deer musk here on Love's ritual vessel. My dark eyes put to shame even a cluster of bees; smudged by your kisses, brighten them again with kajal. My hair flies like Cupid's banner, make it beautiful as the peacock's crest. Fix flowers in my hair and put right my apparel and bejeweled girdle loosened by love play, Radha tells the joyful Yadu hero. Misra Khafi Raga.
This performance was broadcast on national television under the direction of the legendary dance/music producer Kamalini Dutt.
