mātaraṁ pitaraṁ bhrātṝn
patīn putrān svasṝn api
yad-arthe jahima dāśārha
dustyajān sva-janān prabho
tā naḥ sadyaḥ parityajya
gataḥ sañchinna-sauhṛdaḥ
kathaṁ nu tādṛśaṁ strībhir
na śraddhīyeta bhāṣitam

WORD BY WORD



TRANSLATION

For Kṛṣṇa’s sake, O descendant of Dāśārha, we abandoned our mothers, fathers, brothers, husbands, children and sisters, even though these family relations are difficult to give up. But now, O Lord, that same Kṛṣṇa has suddenly abandoned us and gone away, breaking off all affectionate ties with us. And yet how could any woman fail to trust His promises?
