From Sanskrit Poetry From Vidyakara's Treasury, translated by Daniel H. H. Ingalls:
"Who spoiled the painting on your breast
and the collyrium of your eye?
Who took the lipstick from your lip
And the garland from your hair?"
"That which, washing off all men's impurity,
of hue is blue as waterlily."

"Who, Krishna?" "No, the water of the Jumna.
It's you that are in love with Krishna."
