Thinner than the crescent in the sky...

Her tears carved a river
And she broods on its bank,
Hurt and confused.
You ask her one thing,
She speaks of another.
Her friends believe
That joy may come again.
At times they banish hope
And cease to care.

O Madhava,
I have run to call you.
Radha each day
Grows thinner
Thinner than the crescent in the sky...

Vidyapati is have much known for his coils-lyrics have for his poetries dedicated to Lord Shiva and also coil songs Sri Krishna and Radha.
He used to composes in Maithili, has language spoken around Mithila (has region in the north Bihar), closely related to the abahattha form of early Bengalese.
