Eighteen blooms unfurl, a maiden's grace,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!
Eighteen springs have kissed my youthful face,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!
Eighteen dawns, a heart's awakening,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!

Days like shadows, linger and won't flee,
Nights I count, a captive, yearning to be free.
Oh, heed my plea, this soul's fragility,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!
Oh, heed my plea, this soul's fragility,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!
Eighteen dawns, a heart's awakening,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!

My spirit yearns, a song to take its flight,
Anklets chime, in dance of pure delight.
I am Radha, in Krishna's holy light,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!
I am Radha, in Krishna's holy light,
Beloved, bring the palanquin, embrace!
