Inscription Translation

One who is proficient in dance, song and poetry, who is of stable character, but whose eyes are restless, whose mouth is fragrant, who is graceful in the arts of love is called a chitrini nayika. One who has very little body hair, who is capable of providing a lot of amorous activity, who is fond of aromatic substances, and who loves paintings is called a chitrini nayika. [The Nayika is looking at a picture of Krishna.] If this painting could talk and listen, if it could see and be seen, if it could dance, sing, play the vina, sulk and cause others to sulk, love, embrace, and laugh, then this painting would verily become Krishna. 39
