Gauḍīya Ācāryas

Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya

Translation

Kailāsa resounds everywhere with the cries of peacocks and bees blinded by the sweet honey. It resounds with the drawn out cries of the cuckoos and other birds. The peacocks cry everywhere (abhi). There is a noise like a group of householders talking. The bees blinded with intoxication are like singers who intone various ragas with notes, improvisations and modulations (vimūrchitam). The cries of the cuckoos and other birds are long drawn out (plāvitaiḥ).
