    tohe kaho subala sāṅgāti tabadhari hāma nā jāni dibā rāti

    O friend Subala, I tell you: from that moment I no longer know whether it is day or night.

    tahi dhani maṇi du-i cāri tahi mano-mohinī eka nārī

    so rahu majhu mane paṭhi manasija dhūme ghuma nāhi diṭhi

    I keep that girl in my heart. My heart is filled with the smoke of Kamadeva's flames. Lost in the smoke, I cannot see the directions.

    dine dine kṣīṇa bhela dehā gobinda-dāsa kaha aiche naba-lehā

    Day after day my body becomes more thin and emaciated. Govinda dasa says: These are the signs of new love.
