TRANSLATION

"O gopīs, I am not able to repay My debt for your spotless service, even within a lifetime of Brahmā. Your connection with Me is beyond reproach. You have worshiped Me, cutting off all domestic ties, which are difficult to break. Therefore please let your own glorious deeds be your compensation."


PURPORT

This verse from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (SB 10.32.22) was spoken by Śrī Kṛṣṇa Himself when He returned to the gopīs upon hearing their songs of separation.
