A wonderful and auspicious day!
I am very fond of this day,
that has ushered in spring season into my life!
The day—when myriad desires and hopes
in my heart flied into air like doves!
The day—when all my hopes that turned into doves
have safely returned to their nests
keeping all my hopes alive forever!
The day—all the attractions in the sky
have descended and appeared in front of my household!
The day—when I could hold moon in my hand!
The day—when Brindavanam smiled with me!
The day—when my romantic thoughts
took shape and grow up for the first time in my heart!
The day—my family deity cheered me with blessings!
The day—when the aspirations of my mother
flourished like perfumed flowers in my heart!
