(Charanam)

Ambuja locana kambu shubhagreeva

Your eyes are like lotus petals and your neck is like a shell
Bimbaadharaa chandra bimbaananaa      X2

Your lips are red like ripe Bimba(Indian fruit) and your face is beautiful like the moon
Caampeya naasaagra  sarva sumowdhika 

Your nose is sharp like the Plumeria(Champa flower) adorned with shining pearls.

Taaraka  chandrajanita madana        X2

The pleasant moon of the autumn season is arousing amorous feelings.

(Pallavi)
