I put my fingers in my ears
to block the sound whenever Krishna gently plays His flute! Declares Raskhan, "It happens when enchanter Mohan climbs to the rooftop to call His cows. "I issue a warning to all the people of Braja. Tomorrow, I will not be able to console them. "O, friend! Having glimpsed His smile, I cannot... I cannot... I will not control my love." - from "Treasury of Love: The Poems of Rasakhan" translated by Shyamdas. (Available from http://www.shyamdas.com/books.htm)
