अनासक्तिं त्वमब्रूथा आसक्तिं च जनार्दन ।

त्वय्यासक्तोऽस्मि गोविन्द नान्यत्र मधुसूदन ।।३९७।।

O Lord, [in the Bhagavadgītā] you spoke about detachment and attachment.  O Kr̥ṣṇa, I am attached to you and to no one else.

सदा कृष्णतनौ कृष्ण तव मे सज्जते मन: ।

प्रेयांसि सन्ति भूयांसि परितस्तेषु मेऽरति: ।।३९८।।

O Kr̥ṣṇa, my mind is constantly attached to your figure.  There are many desirables around me, but I have no delight in them.

मनो मे त्वयि संलग्नं मोहितं तव लीलया ।

कथं ततो निवर्तेत त्वदीयाद् दृढबन्धनात् ।।३९९।।

My mind attached to you is transfixed by your play.  How will it turn away from that strong bond of yours?

मत्कर्णयो: समायाति वेणोस्ते मधुरो ध्वनि: ।

अालोकयामि सर्वत्र निगूढस्त्वं क्व माधव ।।४००।।

The sweet sound of your flute comes to my ears.  I look around everywhere.  O Mādhava, where are you hidden?

पल्लवेषु तरूणां त्वं वातवद् वर्तसे हरे ।

वेणुनादो लताकुञ्जे कुत्रासि मधुसूदन ।।४०१।।

O Kr̥ṣṇa, you are like wind in the leaves of the trees.  The sound of your flute in the bower of vines.  Where are you Kr̥ṣṇa?

शयान: शयने रात्रौ विनिद्रोऽहं विचिन्तयन् ।

हरे त्वामेव, कुत्रासि, देहि माधव दर्शनम् ।।४०२।।

Sleepless at night lying on my bed I am thinking only of you, O Kr̥ṣṇa.  Where are you?  Show yourself to me.

हृदये मे निगूढस्त्वं भव मे नेत्रगोचर: ।

कथं पार्थेन दृष्टस्त्वं मात्सर्यं जायते मम ।।४०३।।

You are hidden in my heart, but be visible to my eyes.  How come you were seen by Arjuna.  I am jealous.

मोहितं गोकुलं कृष्ण वेणुना मधुरेण ते ।

मोहितस्त्वं च तेनैव विना वेणुं न वर्तसे ।।४०४।।

O Kr̥ṣṇa, the Gokula is enraptured by your sweet flute, and you are enraptured with that flute, so that you are never without it.

शृण्वन्तो मधुरं नादं वेणोस्ते पक्षिणो वने ।

निजं स्वरं विस्मरन्ति ते समाहितमानसा: ।।४०५।।

Listening the sweet sound of your flute, the birds in the forest, completely calmed in their minds, forget their own tweeting.

वेणुना तव गोविन्द मोहितं यमुनाजलम् ।

नोत्सहते पुरो गन्तुं गोकुलान्मधुसूदन ।।४०६।।

O Kr̥ṣṇa, the water of Yamunā enraptured with your flute does not want to move ahead of Gokula.

आकर्णयन्त्यो मधुरं वेणुनादं व्रजाङ्गना: ।

दधिमन्थं परित्यज्य व्रजन्ति यमुनातटम् ।।४०७।।

The ladies of Braj, listening to the sweet sound of your flute leave behind churning the yogurt and rush to the bank of Yamunā.
