(1)
mandira bāhira kaṭhina kapāṭa
cala-ite śańkila pańkila bāṭa
(2)
taḿhi ati dūratara bādara dola
bari ki bāra-i nīla nicola

sundarī kaiche kayabi abhisāra
hari raha mānasa suradhunī pāra

gobinda-dāsa kaha ithe ki bicāra
chūṭala bāṇa kiye yatane nibāra
TRANSLATION
-
She departs from the house and the locked gate. Frightened, she flees on the muddy pathway.
-
A ferocious rainstorm blows with great winds. How can her black cloak keep out the torrents of rain?
-
How will this beautiful girl meet with Krsna? He is on the Manasa-ganga’s farther shore.
-
“Jhanajhana!” Thunderbolts fall again and again. Hearing the thunder, she feels her ears and heart filled with flames of pain.
-
Flames of lightning flash in the ten directions. Watching, she fills her upraised wide-open eyes.
-
O beautiful girl, if you leave your home for love’s sake, then for love’s sake you should give up all worry for your own body.
-
Govinda dasa says: How can worry stop her now? When shot from the bow, how can an arrow be stopped?
