 Translation
 Certainly Krsna sat down here with His girlfriend to arrange Her hair. The lusty boy must have made a crown for that lusty girl out of the flowers He had collected.
 Purport BBT
 The acaryas explain that Sri Krsna wanted to decorate Radharani’s hair with the forest flowers He had collected. Therefore They sat down together facing the same direction, with Radharani between Krsna’s knees, and Krsna proceeded to arrange Her hair with flowers and make a flower crown for Her, coronating Her as the goddess of the forest. Thus the romantic young boy and girl played and joked together in Vrndavana.
Sridhara  Svami
 They  speak  upon  seeing  a  sign  that  she  sat  between  Krsna’s  knees.
 “Evidently,  having  Her  in  mind  (kantam  =  kantam  adhikrtya),  He sat  while  tying  the  flowers  into  an  imitation  of  a chaplet
Sanatana  Gosvami
 He  did  Her  hair  with  His  fingers,  or  with  a  comb  that  He  had placed  on  His  head  for  that  purpose.  The  point  of  arranging  Her hair  is  implied:  kaminyah  kamina  (of  the  lusty  girl  by  the  lusty  boy).
 This  means  it  was  for  the  sake  of  the  good  fun  of  being  in  lust.
Visvanatha  Cakravarti
 Radha’s  rivals  again  speak,  upon  seeing  a  sign  that  she  sat  between Krsna’s  knees.  It’s  understood  that  He  arranged  Her  hair  with  a comb  provided  by  the  presiding  goddess  of  the  forest.
 “The  girl  is  lusty:  She  is  not  in  love,  because  she  cheated  her friends  and  went  to  a  secluded  place  by  taking  that  libertine  with
 her.  The  youth  is  lusty:  He  is  not  in  love,  because  He  doesn’t  care about  the  pain  that  we  lovey-dovey  girls  feel  in  separation  from Him.”
“Certainly, sitting here was done by Him who was making the ladylove endowed with a wreath by means of the flowers,” or by means of Her braids in order to reveal His manliness in a humorous way.
