Meaning

Oh, dear friend Gauri. when did Krishna come home?  While I was asleep in my house he came into my dreams and went away.  Now I have no peace during day time, no sleep at night.  I am totally lost.  I keep hearing the ever-new melody of Krishna in the arbors and lanes of Brindavana.  All women are captivated by his lovely form.  He sits under the bamboo shrubs in Maduvana and grazes the cattle.  Sri Padmanabha relaxing on the serpent may live long for eons to come!
