Translation
In Vraja: The form of Kṛṣṇa with the complexion of a new rain cloud, holding a flute to His mouth with His two hands, wearing a yellow cloth which defeats resplendent gold, with a peacock feather crown on His head, wanders about the bank of the Yamunā near Govardhana and gives bliss to the inhabitants of Svargaloka and to ourselves, His servants on this earth.
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
The inhabitants of Vṛndāvana used to say, “Kṛṣṇa is always manifest before us with a complexion like a blackish cloud. He holds His wonderful flute in His lotus hands. He is dressed in yellow silks and bedecked with a peacock feather on His head. When Kṛṣṇa walks near Govardhana Hill with these personal features, all the inhabitants of the heavenly planets, as well as the inhabitants of this earth, feel transcendental bliss and consider themselves the eternal servants of the Lord.”
