Radhike Chale Aao
" The misfortune of man has its source in his greatness. For there is something infinite in him and he cannot succeed in burying himself completely in the finite."
Thomas Carlyle
Sebuah lagu bisa menjadi sarana untuk menyatakan suatu pesan. Lagu ini salah satunya. Sebuah ajakan dari Shri Krishna kepada Radha atau para gopi.
Kalau dalam cerita 5000 tahun yang lalu Radha merindukan Krishna. Lewat lagu ini, Krishna, Sang Avatar yang datang kembali untuk merindukan Radha dan para gopi/gopal.
Kerinduan jiwa untuk bisa bertemu kembali. Kerinduan yang menyedihkan namun mengusik air mata haru.
Coba simak lirik lagunya dalam bahasa Inggris ini :
" Come O Radha, come
Don't make us long anymore in this fashion
Just a few breaths are left...
Vrindavan is all deserted
The Sakhis, the friends are all sad...
Without you
Even Krishna is in complete...
Don't make us long anymore in this fashion...
Just a few breaths are left
Come o Radha, Come...
I look for you in the narrow lane of Brij ( Vrindavan )...
And
Magnificient palaces...
You live within me
Yet, My eyes can not see you
Don't make us long anymore in this fashion...
Just a few breaths are left
Come o Radha, Come...
