As the queens loudly cried, their tears glided down their breasts, becoming reddened by kuṅkuma powder, and fell upon the lotus feet of their husband. Their hair became disarrayed, their ornaments fell, and in a way that evoked sympathy from the hearts of others, the queens began lamenting their husband’s death.

Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

As the queens loudly cried, their tears, reddened by kuṅkuma powder on their breasts, moistened the lotus feet of their husband. With their hair and ornaments in disarray, causing grief in all people, they lamented by crying.
