Poem for Mar 27



Acarya's Writing

Padyavali, Anthology of Devotional Poetry
Srila Rupa Gosvami

Jala-keli
Water Pastimes

Verse 302

As a young cakravaka couple
separates and then meets again,
Krishna, His palms trembling in
His water-pastimes, delights in
covering and uncovering Radha’s face.
May Lord Krishna protect the entire world.

— author unknown

Note: The male and female cakravaka birds associate during the day, but separate again at night.
