Ah! My Lord Gaura-kiśora does not know if it is day or night. For no reason He laughs. My Lord’s heart is overcome.

One moment He loudly calls, “Where is my Lord? Where is the Lord of My life?” One moment He has chills and His body trembles. Moment after moment He leaps. Where did He go?

One moment He raises His armas, dances, and sings. Then, moment after moment He laments. Another moment He closes His eyes, calls out, “My Lord!”, and weeps. Then, moment after moment He is filled with torment.
