Abounding in clinging love for Achyuta's limbs fallen in the water, garlanded with the dark champaka at the end of restless Radha's hair, ever served by Narada when the lord descends to bathe, may Kalinda's daughter wash away our mind's impurity.

Clinging to Achyuta's limbs and served by Narada at every bath, she embodies love that will not release the Lord; such steadfast clinging of the heart to the supreme is itself the bath that cleanses the mind.
