As the hot summer comes to an end the rain clouds shower cooling water giving great pleasure to all the Vrajavasis Who welcome the monsoon with great pleasure The lakes fill with fresh clear water upon which hundreds of lotuses bloom the trees and creepers burst out with flowers of various colours like pink, white and maroon Trees in all the directions turn lush green the skies overhead dark blue with rainclouds the sweet smell of wet mud permeates the air the peacocks, parrots, and chatakas call out loud Swans frolic amidst the abundant lotus stems Beez buzz around blossoming bunches of blooms Honey oozes out from the nectar laden bee hives which the cowherd Gopas and Gopis drink with relish The beauty of the forests of Vraja increases manifolds as the Lord enjoys his pastimes with his friends their merry laughter and songs of great pleasure fill the forests of Vrindavan when the summer ends The young maidens of Vraja living in Javat Return home to their parents from their husbands setting up swings for the pleasure of the divine couple they enjoy various pastimes in the grooves of Barsana
