tohe kaho subala sāṅgāti tabadhari hāma nā jāni dibā rāti
tohe kaho subala sangati tabadhari hama na jani diba rati
तोहे कहो सुबल साङ्गाति तबधरि हाम ना जानि दिबा राति
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
tahi dhani mani du-i cari tahi mano-mohini eka nari
तहि धनि मणि दुइ चारि तहि मनोमोहिनी एक नारी
In that place were two or four beautiful girls splendid like glistening jewels. But only one of those girls cast a spell on My heart.

so rahu majhu mane paṭhi manasija dhūme ghuma nāhi diṭhi

सो रहु मझु मने पठि मनसिज धूमे घुम नाहि दिठि
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.
- Verse 5
anukhaṇa tahita samādhi ko jāne kaichana biraha-biyādhi
anukhana tahita samadhi ko jane kaichana biraha-biyadhi
अनुखण तहित समाधि को जाने कैछन बिरहबियाधि
Moment after moment I am rapt in thinking of this girl. I know nothing but Her. I am overcome by the fever of separation from Her.

dine dine kṣīṇa bhela dehā gobinda-dāsa kaha aiche naba-lehā
dine dine ksina bhela deha gobinda-dasa kaha aiche naba-leha

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