Sri Lalita Sakhi
SRI SRI LALITASTAKAM
by Srila Rupa Goswami
1. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities.
She worships the
perspiration of Sri Sri Radha-Mukunda's lotus feet and acts boldly, out of
intense feelings of
friendship for Them.
2. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. Her
face defeats the
beauty of the ambrosial corona of the full moon, her eyes are like those of an
alarmed deer and
she is expert in the art of decorating Sri Radhika.
3. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. She
wears a
wonderful silk dress colored like a peacock with outstretched feathers, as well
as a nice
blouse, and her complexion defeats the golden splendour of gorocana.
4. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. She
teaches Sri
Radhika the art of a left-wing heroine saying: "Radhe! Firmly reject this shrewd
son of the
king of Vraja, O immoral girl! Listen! Don't be weak! I'm saying it for Your own
good. Don't
submit to Him!"
5. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. Her
eyes become red
with anger if she sees the son of the king of Vraja cheating Sri Radhika even
slightly, then
she will promptly embarrass Him with her clever words.
6. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. She
is the abode of
affection for the Queen of cowherders, Yasoda, she is the teacher of the art of
friendship for
all the sakhis and her love for Sri Radhika and Krsna is equal.
7. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. She
requests every
girl in Vraja to join the party of Vrsabhanu's daughter and who fulfills all
desires of that
girl (or of Sri Radhika).
7a. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. All
her desires
were at once fulfilled when she saw the path of Sri Radha in Vraja being blocked
by a certain
person.
8. I offer my obeisances to Lalita devi, who has many wonderful qualities. She
always enjoys
the festival of Radha and Vrajendrasuta's meeting and she is the chief of all
Radha's dear
girlfriends in Gokula.
9. Anyone who recites these prayers praising Lalita's wonderful qualities with a
pure vision
will be lovingly counted amongst her own (friends or maidservants) by Sri
Radhika, the
brilliant desire vine of the family of the Lord of Kirtida (King Vrsabhanu). )
