Lord Gaura, who in truth is Lord Kṛṣṇa, Lord Kṛṣṇa who is like a moon shining in Gokula, departs at dawn for His own home. In a private room Vallabha Acārya speaks affectionate words to his daughter. Ah, what words he speaks to Lakṣmīpriyā!
Watching the new couple proceeding opn the street, the ladies cannot remain peaceful. Tears flow from their eyes. Lakṣmīpriyā's friends know well that Lakṣmīpriya and her husband will soon depart.
Conchshells, dundubhis, and bheris all sound. Musical instruments play in many different ways. Dancers dance. Singers sing glorious songs without stop.
Brāhmaṇas chant the Vedas. Poets praise the new couple's glories. Sounds of "Jaya! Jaya!" fill the worlds. In this way He who is the master of Narahari's house enjoys pastimes.
