Translation
(SWEET SPRING/MADHUMAASA)
The winds blow carrying fragrant smells (of various flowers)! Branches are filled with newly risen sprouts. The female partners of the cuckoo birds act restless, feeling happy (by consuming the sprouts of the mango tree) and sad (by the tormenting crows) at the same time, and sing longingly. The face-moons of the girls faded by the heat of the summer are moist by the very sparsely forming sweat (nectar as of the moon). As the spring moves on the earth, who does not feel exhilarated with the rise of pleasant thoughts! ॥ 81 ॥
