The Sanskrit text on the painting from Canto XII of the Gita Govinda reads:
nayana kuranga taranga vikasanira sakare srutimandale
manasi japasavila sadhare subhavesa nivesaya kundale
"Hang on my ears the jewelled ear-rings, O accomplished youth,
Whence the antelopes of thine eyes may run downwards and sport at pleasure."
