Meaning
Nayika : Oh Kaminimani! Dear friend! Today why is your face sweating like this? tell!!
Sakhi; I sweat due to the rays of the sun.
Nayika: Oh the one, with eyes like the young deer! Why both your eyes are reddish?
Sakhi: Alas! May be due to the harsh words of the beloved one.
Nayika: Why is your hair which is always beautiful as dark clouds look untidy?
Sakhi: The fresh gentle breeze has made my hair untidy.
Nayika: Why the kunkuma on your forehead is disturbed? Oh, kOkilavAni!
Sakhi: Oh PankajAkshi! my upper garment might have rubbed over it.
Nayika: Tell me the reason as to why you are looking tired?
Sakhi: It is due to my wandering here and there.
Nayika: Oh Manini! Whatever your spoke may be true. But now listen to my words, Oh the one with the marvelous unparallel form! However it is, you must have united with the charming Sri Padmanabha and that is why there are marks on your lips!
