CC Antya 15.23

কৃষ্ণের অধরামৃত, তাতে কর্পূর মন্দস্মিত, স্ব-মাধুর্যে হরে নারীর মন ।
অন্যত্র ছাড়ায় লোভ, না পাইলে মনে ক্ষোভ, ব্রজনারীগণের মূলধন ।।” ২৩ ।। ॥ ২৩ ॥
kṛṣṇera adharāmṛta,tāte karpūra manda-smita,
sva-mādhurye hare nārīra mana
anyatra chāḍāya lobha,
nā pāile mane kṣobha,
vraja-nārī-gaṇera mūla-dhana”

Translation

“Kṛṣṇa’s lips are so sweet when combined with the camphor of His gentle smile that they attract the minds of all women, forcing them to give up all other attractions. If the sweetness of Kṛṣṇa’s smile is unobtainable, great mental difficulties and lamentation result. That sweetness is the only wealth of the gopīs of Vṛndāvana.”
