सो सनिसी युक्त जीवन बसात संगात में सारी बिभात भली है। चारु सुदृग अलीगन ब्रात बिनोदन मात हसात चली है॥ लाल दिमाल मिले मुसुक्यात बिराजत जोरी हिंडोर थली है। सा छवि देखि मणीरसरंग अनंगरती मुख स्याही मली है॥ १८ ॥

Life is joined to its delight: in that companionship every splendour becomes beautiful. Lovely-eyed companies of companions move laughing, intoxicated by play. The Beloved and his dear one meet with smiles, the Couple enthroned upon the swing. Seeing that beauty, says Mani Rasarang, even Love and Rati seem to have their faces darkened in defeat.
