(In Sanskṛti) The playful of the flute has now become Your enemy. That flute music is the mantra from the Atharva Veda to exorcise Your shyness. It is the sacred mantra to ignite the sacrificial fire of amorous pastimes. It is the "tat tvam asi" mantra of the Upaniṣads to proclaim Your conjugal union with Lord Kṛṣṇa.

English translation

Translation

(In Sanskrit) O flute, although both you and the bow are born from the great bamboo cane, still it is to the bow that I offer My respectful obeisances and not to you. When a person is wounded by arrows from the bow, a person quickly gives up his body without suffering for a long time. However, when a person is pierced by the musical arrows of the flute, which are more terrible even than the arrows of cupid, O cruel flute, when pierced by your musical arrows, which are more terrible and dangerous than even the arrows of cupid, a person attains a very horrible situation where he remains neither dead or alive.
