What is Shri Yugal Stuti?

Read Shri Yugal Stuti in English (IAST) script — full lyrics with English meaning and transliteration. A joint praise of the pair, and its form is strict antiphony: every line is cut in half, the first half belonging to Radha and closing on Shri Radhe, the second belonging to Krishna and closing on Shri Krishna, and no line ever mixes them. Dark and fair, ever young, the loving pair — then the relisher, the juicy one, the gallant, the handsome, proud of his qualities. She who plays in the rasa and spreads its taste, held at her beloved's breast; he new in colour every moment and bent in three places. Swan-gaited, the golden creeper, the vine of love's savour; ocean of all happiness, mine of every virtue. The closing line names her as the very power of bliss and the mistress Hari loves, and then lets the whole thing dissolve into the Hare Krishna refrain.
