Chaupai Text

उर मनि माल कंबु कल गीवा। काम कलभ कर भुज बलसींवा॥ सुमन समेत बाम कर दोना। सावँर कुअँर सखी सुठि लोना॥ ४ ॥

ura mani māla kaṃbu kala gīvā। kāma kalabha kara bhuja balasīṃvā॥ sumana sameta bāma kara dōnā। sāvaṃra kuaṃra sakhī suṭhi lonā॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

A garland of jewels rests on the chest. The neck is beautiful like a conch shell. The arms are soft and graceful, like the trunk of Cupid's elephant-calf, and are the very limit of strength. With a little bowl in His left hand filled with flowers, O friend, that dark-complexioned prince is truly most lovely.
