TRANSLATION
"Blue and red lotus flowers are unconscious objects, whereas cakravakas are conscious and alive. Nevertheless, in ecstatic love, the blue lotuses began to taste the cakravakas. This is a reversal of their natural behavior, but in Lord Krsna's kingdom such reversals are a principle of His pastimes.
