kuṁvari binu, priyatama hota adhīra
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
(One sakhī is describing to another the sad plight of Shyāmasundara in separation from Kishorī Jī.) Beloved Shrī Kṛishṇa is extremely restless in separation from Shrī Rādhā. He is yearning and pining for Rādhā like a fish taken out of the water. Endless tears keep flowing from His eyes. Thus, He is continuously lamenting and weeping in the kuñja of creeping wines, repeatedly crying out, “Hā Prāṇeshwarī! hā Rādhe!” Again, He falls on the ground swooning moment after moment, feeling completely restless. His prana is about to leave His body as it is becoming impossible for Him (Shyāmasundara) to bear the pangs of separation any longer. Therefore, Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī suggests to a gopī, “Oh friend! Let us immediately go to Kishorī Jī in order to appease Her, or else, Shyāmasundara will lose His life in Her separation.”

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
kuṁvari binu, priyatama hota adhīra
talaphata nita jalahīna-mīna jyoṁ, bahata rahata dṛiga-nīra
‘hā prāṇeshvari! hā rādhe!’ kahi, bilapata, kuñja-kuṭīra
puni murchhita hvai girata chhinahiṁ chhina, nekahuṁ dharata na dhīra
prānana āna parī hai aba to, sahi na jāti ura-pīra
chalu ‘kripālu’ druta lalihiṁ manāvana, prāna jāta na tu vīra!
