Srila Bhatta Goswâmipâd has explained, Sri Lilâshuk is saying in this verse, “After causing delight to my eyes, Sri Krishna is arriving again. ‘Bâl’ means ‘beautiful’, ‘ayam’ means he is indicating to Sri Krishna with his finger, and ‘mugdha’ means ‘captivating face’. ‘Mugdhena dugdhe’ means ‘others milk with their hands whereas He milks (exploits) with His face and attire’.
With what sort of face?
With a face, that has restless eyes.
With what sort of attire?
‘ghosho-chita-bhushanena’ – dressed as a cowherd boy that is, wearing ornaments made of peacock-feathers, gunjâ and leaves.
Once again, with what sort of face and attire?
‘Chitri-Krita-ding-mukhena’. “He is making the entire universe colourful with His face and attire. His hair is diffusing blackness. His eyes are spreading rosyness, His honey like smile is flashing whiteness, His kundals are splashing goldness, and His lips are turning everything red. In this manner, I meditate on the mesmerizing face of the Beloved of Sri Râdhikâ.” 69.
