TRANSLATION

" 'My dear friend kurarī, it is now night, and Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is sleeping. You yourself are not asleep or resting but are lamenting. Should I presume that you, like us, are affected by the smiling, liberal, playful glances of the lotus eyed Kṛṣṇa? If so, your heart is deeply pierced. Is that why you are showing these signs of sleepless lamentation?'


PURPORT

This is a quotation from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.90.15). Although the queens were with Kṛṣṇa, they were still thinking of losing His company.
