Význam

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura gives a hint of the quality of the śyāmā woman.

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura v krátkosti uvádí, jaká žena se nazývá śyāmā:

śīta-kāle bhaved uṣṇā
uṣma-kāle suśītalāḥ
stanau sukaṭhinau yāsāṁ
tāḥ śyāmāḥ parikīrtitāḥ
śīta-kāle bhaved uṣṇā
uṣma-kāle suśītalāḥ
stanau sukaṭhinau yāsāṁ
tāḥ śyāmāḥ parikīrtitāḥ

A woman whose body is very warm during the winter and cool during the summer and who generally has very firm breasts is called śyāmā.

Śyāmā je žena, jejíž tělo je v zimě teplé a v létě chladné a jež má zpravidla velmi pevná prsa.
