Translation“He covers his ears with his hands when he hears the humming of bumblebees. Every night he expects that he will attain your company, but he is disappointed. His infirmity increases as he goes on enduring the torture of separation day after day.” Commentary“Although swarms of bumblebees are humming in all four directions, this sound is not pleasant for Kṛṣṇa. Rather, it grates harshly against his ears, so he tries to block them with his hands. Every night he thinks that you are by his side, but when he realizes that you are not actually there, his sorrow intensifies. Consumed by loneliness, he is simply floundering. He tosses and turns incessantly when he lies down to rest.” In this verse, the sakhé has described vipralambha-uddépana-vibhäva. |
