Meaning

Oh, friend! Whose face is like that of the moon, one with beautiful teeth!  I know that nowadays my Lod enjoys the company of another girl.
That girl who claims that attention of my Lord is of the opinion that, He is an ordinary mortal. Oh, one with a beautiful face!
Although I am inflicted by the arrows of Cupid, I do not mind you attend on Him.  He is the one with peerless beauty.  The refuge of the universe! and lo! she thinks of him as an ordinary mortal.
She imagines that he is just a fallible mortal, whereas he is the ultimate repository fo all virtues. Oh, my friend, with dazzling figure and sweet words!  I pray to him who is devoid of any flaws to dispel all my miseries.
He is lord Sarasanabha, whose face resembles the autumnal moon!  The beauty of his form surpasses that of Cupid.  When will I have the pleasure of seeing you in the company of my beloved?  Oh, most virtuous one!
