TRANSLATION

Her hand adorned with rings, bangles and the camara fan, Queen Rukmini looked resplendent standing near Lord Krsna. Her jeweled ankle-bells tinkled, and her necklace glittered, reddened by the kunkuma from her breasts, which were covered by the end of her sari. On her hips she wore a priceless belt.

PURPORT

Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti points out that as Queen Rukmini fanned her Lord with broad strokes, the jewels and gold on her beautiful limbs resounded with her effort.
