Kasturitilakam...




कस्तूरीतिलकम  ललाटपटले
वक्शह्स्थले कौस्तुभं |

नासाग्रे वरमौक्तिकम
करतले  वेणुः करे कंकणं |

सर्वांगे हरिचन्दनम
सुललितं कंठे च मुक्तावली |

गोपस्त्री परिवेस्थितो
विजयते  गोपाल  चूडामणि ||

Extremely melodiously sung Sanskrit composition in Raga Madhuvanti by Pandit Jasraj.

Kasturitilakam - is a composition that describes Krishna´s beautiful appearance. Kasturi- Tilaka is on His forehead, celestial gem Koustubham hangs on His chest. At the tip of His nose, is a rare pearl. He holds the famous flute in His palm. His wrist is decorated with the wristlet. His whole body shines attractively, smeared with the paste of sandal. He, who is ever glorious and victorious, provides moksha to the Gopikas. He is the charm among all Gopalas.
