Along the sandy banks of Yamuna,
In chilly misty air
She awaits a love dance again
with her Lover fair
To see His footsteps in the sand
She searches hither thither
In her unceasing wait for Krishna
She slowly begins to wither
Nights pass away with changing moons
Days with the seasons
Yet the day of Tryst is elusive
For some inexplicable reason
Yearning eyes yet lose not faith
Gazing in every direction
Even elements fail to snuff out the hope
For her soul burns in passion
The heart cries out at last
- "Where is Krishna, mine.
Radha's scorching desire be quenched
by just one tryst with thine"
Translation (though not an exact one) of the song "Yamunai Aatrile" reflecting the yearning of Radha, from the Tamil film Dalapathi
