प्यार में डूबी प्यार में खोयी, प्यार की धुन में जागी ना सोयी
दुनिया से है वो अनजानी, सब केहते हैं प्रेम दीवानी
Moon God, be kind to me today. Allow me to step outside this village and lead the way to the flower bower where my lover awaits.
I shall learn the lesson to restrain the mind from the sages tomorrow. Tonight I want his warm hands to travel on my tender frame that I have so ardently adorned. Ananda, the holy bliss, I have heard people tirelessly looking for, for which many have left homes and travelled to the snow capped mountains, I find it all in his embrace.
I shall travel far and wide. I shall brave the slithering snakes of the shrubs who lie hidden under the shade. I shall steady my heart to walk alone on this forest path, but Moon god, I shall faint, if someone else from the village finds me travel at this ungodly hour.
Do not jest here. True, I am travelling like a robber in the dark, but I am no robber. My heart has been robbed by the charming one who awaits me in the fragrant bower. You must not let anyone know of this clandestine affair.
Rest, I hope my plea is accepted by your kind heart. Haven't you helped lovers before?
Is it the moonlight or my lover indeed on the river? I see her white scarf fly with the breeze. The stars have showered there twinkling light on the river to welcome the bewitching beauty.
The earthen lamp illuminates her face. Could there be any other alluring sight other than that? The tiny flame dances across her moon-like face. They light her eyes, and I can see a hint of passion as well as determination. The love warrior has set out to battle on the love bed. Is that true?
She needs no sword to wound my heart. Her eyes are skilled to do the job. Anticipation has filled me, I wonder what will she do today? Tresses open, the jasmine garland scattered on her bosom, the love warrior shall show no mercy today.
The world has reduced me to a bird belonging to old legends and fairytales. But, I am real for you. My love is real for you.
I can see the lovers. The maiden is rowing the boat with sweat dripping down her forehead, as her lotus like eyes dart around here and there. I see the bewitched man who thinks that moonlight, you, my love has come down to decorate her form, to help her enchant him.
Like all brave lovers, she too has set her heart to meet him. She has ventured outside her courtyard once, not caring about remarks and whispers that would disgrace her if someone catches her and her lover. I venture out boldly to love you, but you never wait for me. Before, I reach you, you disappear and send the burning sun in the sky.
This distance between us makes me keep loving you. Your distant form that shines brightly at the world keeps my hopes intact that someday like these lovers, I shall meet you someday. Maybe, I will find you enchanted by me just like this man.
My pleas for union fall in your deaf ears. But, if my love is pure, let the lovers meet tonight.

Because the test went well today, I wrote this up
Also finding dance videos to make these gifs is a real job. My fingers are hurting after making them and typing this. I still love doing this so it's worth the little pain.
So Abhisarika means the heroine who is all set to meet her lover. Nothing will stop her. That's what she thinks and is out in the dark with a shawl over her body so she may remain hidden in the dark.
I have found some lovely kathak videos that brilliantly poetry abhisarika nayika. The first gif is from a kathak video only. I was lucky to get the diya and dark bg one for the video because editing it to make it dark would have been another job and I am lazy.
Also I have no idea why did I write about the chakora but I did.
I have a test tomorrow too so I will head to study. Hope you enjoy this little piece
