Krsna, we miss You



(3561) Vrndavaner manik kanu

Oh Kanu,[1] the ruby of Vrndavan,
You went where, ourselves having left–
Father Nanda and Ma Jashoda,
Milch cow and reed pipe, having forgotten.

Today, the Jamuna races unaccompanied;
Blooms not the kadamba, blossom and tree.
Underneath the tamal at a Gokul moody,
No longer sways the light-ray of duskiness.

Our life, only You are the Dark King;[2]
With You gone, goes away everything.
Today at Govardhan, in the bamboo forest,
No one looks with eyes open.

  1. With You but in the mental realm, who dispels external gloom?
