<a id="line-1"></a>मिलन पाय पिय विरह भय, विरह पाय नहिं चैन ।  
<a id="line-2"></a>दुहुँन भाँति अस दिव्य दुख, पाव रसिक दिन रैन ॥८९॥

Published Hindi meaning — contributor not separately identified in this edition

<a id="line-3"></a>भावार्थ - श्यामसुन्दर के मिलन काल में भक्तों को यह भय रहता है कि कहीं  
<a id="line-4"></a>वियोग न हो जाय, अत: दुःखी रहता है, एवं वियोग में तो दुःखी होना स्वाभाविक है  
<a id="line-5"></a>ही। इस प्रकार मिलन एवं वियोग दोनों ही दशाओं में भक्तों को दिव्य दुःख मिलता है।

<a id="line-6"></a>Milan pȧya Piya virah bhaya, virah pȧya nahiṇ chain.  
<a id="line-7"></a>Ḍuhun bhȧṇṭi as ḍivya ḍukh, pȧv rasik ḍin rain.[89]

Published English meaning — H.D. Swami Prakashanand Saraswati

<a id="line-8"></a>The anxiety of separation worries a Bhakt even while he is  
<a id="line-9"></a>enjoying the presence of Krishn, and when Krishn is away from  
<a id="line-10"></a>him he is naturally experiencing the pain of His separation. Thus,  
<a id="line-11"></a>in both the situations, meeting and separation (milan and virah),  
<a id="line-12"></a>a Bhakt (rasik Saint) experiences the Divinely sweet and loving  
<a id="line-13"></a>pain of Divine love. (The greatness of such a love could be  
<a id="line-14"></a>understood with this fact that even Maha Lakchmi desires to  
<a id="line-15"></a>receive that love and God Shiv is always drowned in the ecstasy  
<a id="line-16"></a>of that love.)
