English translation
Your fame is glorious in thousands of universes, oh Rādhā; Your beauty and splendour cannot be described; they are unfathomable; Many lives have passed only in reflecting [on them], showing constant devotion; Haridās's sovereign Śyāmā Kuñjabihārī says: Oh beloved, I have obtained these days gradually.

English translation
Watching and watching, all the sakhīs forgot [themselves]; Ladies of the worlds of yaksas, kinnaras and nagas, and goddesses, remained enchanted, looking at the earth again and again; The women say to each other: ‘Consider this beauty to be the limit. However they look at Haridās's sovereign Śyāmā, it is with constant scrutiny.

Whatever you do with your beloved, it pleases. Whoever [tries] to equal you is put to shame. You are very knowledgeable in every limb, oh friend, sulking is in vain. Oh Haridās's sovereign Śyāmā, you dwell in [Kṛṣṇa’s] heart and always rule [there].

English translation
Accept these words of mine, you have charmed my dark beloved, oh friend. This uncunning one unconstrainedly settled in a new bower, a palace of great happiness; Caressing his darling with ever new affection, he never, never goes to Braj. I sacrifice myself to Haridās's sovereigns Śyāmā and Kuñjabihārī, a white jasmine and a black bee.

English translation
The beloved has gone to sleep now; The more I waken her, the more she does not wake; she has become immersed while speaking words [full of] love and pleasure. If she were conscious, I would waken her. Through her now the connoisseur [has obtained] the supreme bliss of pure rasa; she has sown rasa. Haridās's sovereigns are Śyāmā and Kuñjabihārī; she rose and embraced him and submitted to new love.
