(1) O my dear girlfriend! How will I maintain my life? The passing of a mere moment has become like a vast age of time. (2) Tears flow from my eyes like torrents of rain in the month of Sravana, and the face of the earth has become totally void. In separation from Govinda my life cannot go on… please tell how I will be able to live. (3) Bhaktivinoda has become very restless and again takes shelter of the holy name, calling out, "O Lord of Radha! By bestowing Your audience, please save my life! By Your mercy alone I shall not perish!"
