Caitanya-caritāmṛta 13.113

“ ‘sei ta parāṇa-nātha pāinu yāhā lāgi’ madana-dahane jhuri’ genu’ ”
[“ ‘sei ta paraana-naatha paainu yaahaa laagi’ madana-dahane jhuri’ genu’ ”]
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
“ ‘sei ta parāṇa-nātha pāinu yāhā lāgi’ madana-dahane jhuri’ genu’ ”
“ ‘Now I have gained the Lord of My life, in the absence of whom I was being burned by Cupid and was withering away.’ ”

This song refers to Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī’s meeting with Kṛṣṇa at the holy place of Kurukṣetra, where Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and His brother and sister came to visit when there was a solar eclipse. It is a song of separation from Kṛṣṇa. When Rādhārāṇī met Kṛṣṇa at Kurukṣetra, She remembered His intimate association in Vṛndāvana, and She thought, “Now I have gained the Lord of My life. In His absence I was being burned by the arrow of Cupid, and thus I was withering away. Now I have My life again.”
