Radha kyu gori? Mai kyu kala?
Little Krishna asks mother Yashoda, "Why is Radha fair while I am dark?"
Boli musakati maiya, lalana ko bataya:
kali adhiyari adhi-rata me tu aya.
Mother Yashoda smiled n told little
Krishna, "You were born on a dark, stormy midnight. My beloved little
Krishna has a black flute. Hence he is dark"
Yashomati maiya se bole Nandalala:
Radha kyu gori? Mai kyu kala?
Little Krishna asks mother Yashoda, "Why is Radha fair while I am dark?"
Boli musakati maiya: suna, mere pyare,
gori-gori Radhika ke naina kajara re.
kale nainovali ne aisa jadu dala,
isi lie kala. Yashomati... .
Maa Yashoda tells little Lord Krishna he's dark because of the jadu of
the Kali Nainowali (the dark-eyed Radhika).
Krishna, being Consciousness personified, is ever enchanted with
Radha (who is material existence and shakti personified). Our
existence is filled with color, but all know that all colors combined
create black. In the same way, the shining Radha is the light that
reveals Consciousness to be one, solid, unchanging, beautiful color
