O Lady Cuckoo! What have you against me? Must you and your mate come here to coo sweetly? Alas, you do not call my Krishna to come, need you try so hard to take my life?

O Lady heron! How melancholically you and your mate converse! You need not have tried so hard. Alas, the trickster. Govinda is no true lover, that is it. Now my life is already in his hands

O Lady herons! My life is hands, need you go around me with your coquettish walks and jibes? This sinner-self has done no penance to service; Alas, how can I hear your piteous calls and live?

O Peahen-and peacock! The trickster Krishna does not heed your calls, pray do not take to the upper register. My heart and speech and deeds are all these with him, my soul and body flounder somewhere between!

O My perching Mynahs! Do not cajole! I have nothing to do with you anymore. The Lord of Sri then took the Earth by trick; he has planned to rob my life as well

O Puerile parrot! I have brought you up well. Now do not start your sweet prattle. Your beak and feathers take my mind to my Lord Rama again. He enjoyed union with me then, and deserted me!

O Dark lightning-clouds! You remind me of Krishna, He enjoyed my company, then deserted my. Pray do not show his lotus eyes, lips and his dark hue; your form is like death to my soul

O Foolish koels! I pleaded with you not to sing my Krishna's names. Alas, you have killed me, I gave you cruds and rice and sweet pudding, and taught you to speak. O Benevolent birds! Good reward for my labours

O Bumble-bees! Do not hum, your music drills into my wound. My Lord Krishna of dark hue, with large eyes like a lotus blossom in a large lake, comes only to rob me of my life

O Good water-egrets! I desired union with the Vaikunta Lord knowingly. This jewel body has learnt to slip away bit by bit. Now what use flocking around me? May joy descend and reign everywhere!

This decad of the thousand songs by kurugur Satakopan blest to sing in sing, the praise of the Lord who reigns in joy everywhere, will melt the hearts of all
