Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta
[Antya-līlā, Ch. 16]
TRANSLATION
“My dear lover,” He said, “let Me describe some of the characteristics of Your transcendental lips. They agitate the mind and body of everyone, they increase lusty desires for enjoyment, they destroy the burden of material happiness and lamentation, and they make one forget all material tastes. The whole world falls under their control. They vanquish shame, religion and patience, especially in women. Indeed, they inspire madness in the minds of all women. Your lips increase the greed of the tongue and thus attract it. Considering all this, we see that the activities of Your transcendental lips are always perplexing.
TEXT 123
আচুক নারীর কায,      কছিতে বাসিন্নে লাজ, তোমার অধর বড় ধৃষ্ট-রায় । পুরুষে করে আকর্ষণ,      আপনা পিয়াইতে মন, অত্যরস সব পাসরায় ॥ ১২৩ ॥
āchuka nārīra kāya,      kahite vāsiye lāja, tomāra adhara baḍa dhṛṣṭa-rāya puruṣe kare ākarṣaṇa,      āpanā piyāite mana, anya-rasa saba pāsarāya
SYNONYMS
āchuka—let it be; nārīra—of women; kāya—the bodies; kahite—to speak; vāsiye—I feel; lāja—shame; tomāra—Your; adhara—lips; baḍa—very much; dhṛṣṭa-rāya—impudent; puruṣe—the male; kare ākarṣaṇa—they attract; āpanā—themselves; piyāite—causing to drink; mana—mind; anya-rasa—other tastes; saba—all; pāsarāya—cause to forget.
TRANSLATION
“My dear Kṛṣṇa, since You are a male, it is not very extraordinary that the attraction of Your lips can disturb the minds of women. I am ashamed to say this, but Your lips sometimes attract even Your flute, which is also considered a male. It likes to drink the nectar of Your lips, and thus it also forgets all other tastes.

সচেতন রহু দূরে,      অচেতন সচেতন করে, তোমার অধর—বড় বাজিকর ।
