Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.83.29
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
-
murāreḥ
—
of Murāri (Kṛṣṇa, enemy of Mura)
Mura (the demon) + ari (enemy). Kṛṣṇa is named here by a name that recalls His killing of the demon Mura at Bhaumāsura's fortress (SB 10.59). Gauḍīya commentators note: the same Lord who slays demons is gentle enough to receive a bride's garland.
-
anurakta - hṛdayā
—
whose heart was attached
Anu (after) + rakta (colored, attached) + hṛdaya (heart). Anurāga — coloring-after, the Gauḍīya term for prema's first ripening. The heart has taken the color of the Lord before the body has approached Him.
-
kaṭa - akṣa - mokṣaiḥ
—
with the casting of sidelong glances
Kaṭa (corner) + akṣa (eye) + mokṣa (release). The sidelong glance — a sthāyī Gauḍīya iconographic element of Rādhā's interaction with Kṛṣṇa. Here used by Lakṣmaṇā but the same rasa-vocabulary.
-
śiśira - hāsa
—
cooling smile
Śiśira (cool) + hāsa (smile). Her smile cools the rival kings even as it warms the Lord. Gauḍīya rasa-doctrine: one bhāva produces opposite effects in different ground.
-
śanakaiḥ
—
slowly
Adverb — unhurriedly. She does not rush the garland onto Kṛṣṇa's neck. The slowness is its own statement: the choice has been made years ago at Nārada's first gītam; the hand may take its time.
Her locks fell over the edges of her cheeks since her locks were tied in a special way near her ears. I looked at the kings present with distain, and then looked at Kṛṣṇa with cooling, smiling glances. With attached heart, I placed a garland that I had made with my own hands (sva-mālām) for him on the shoulders of Murārī, killer of Mura, qualified as the greatest hero. The face had abundant locks around them and its cheeks shone with earrings. Or, the face had cheeks shining with earrings and abundant locks. Śiśira means cool or faint. Going (ayā) with attracted heart (hṛd) to Murāri, I placed the garland on his shoulder. This indicates their mutual love.
I lifted my face, with glances of cool smiles and looked the kings gathered there with distain. Slowly I placed the garland on the Lord, which she held in her hand to present to him (sva-mālām), because my heart was attracted to him. She was absorbed in the Lord out of intense prema. Kṛṣṇa was the killer of the powerful demon Mura. Thus the garland was suitable for him, since he was courageous. Her cheeks glowed from her two earrings and plentiful locks of hair. Her smile was soft (śiśira). Or she went (ayā) to Murārī whose heart was attracted to her (anurakta-hṛt). They had mutual prema.
She lifts her face once, glances around the assembly with cool sidelong eyes, and slowly — śanakaiḥ, slowly — places her garland on Murāri's shoulder. The slowness is theological: there is no rival under consideration; the glance around is courtesy, not deliberation. Her citta had gone to Mukunda at Nārada's first verse; the hand is only completing the citta's journey.
