Cries of Gopis

"O beloved! please reveal Yourself and see how your sweethearts, who have centered their life around you, are longing for you... You have saved us time and again from death through poisonous water, from the clutches of demon disguised as a snake and in the form of a calf, from showers and storm, from strokes of lightning, from all sort of menaces... We believe that You are not merely son of a cowherd woman but essence of all embodied souls... You have manifested for the protection of the universe... O beloved, Our mind grows uneasy thinking about your lotus-feet getting pricked with blades of grass and sprouts when You go out pasturing the cattle... Our minds are infatuated and we are longing to be one with You. Please appear before us
