dve cittavāsasī nītvā kumārīṇāṃ paraṃ dade |
na pūrvaṃ tu nirākāraṃ gopanīyam atīva saḥ || [anuṣṭubh]
yat tarhy antima-ghasra-pūryam api tā devy-arcanaṃ san-madād
vismṛtya vrajam eva jagmur abhavaṃs tenaiva pūrṇa-kriyāḥ |
premṇā yasya tu tac ca tac ca laṣitaṃ tasyātha sākṣāt-phalaṃ
kṛṣṇāṅgī-kṛti-śarma ced vavalire kiṃ śiṣṭam iṣṭaṃ param? || [śārdūla]

Taking both their hearts and their clothes, he returned only the latter;
he did not return the former, which is formless and must be kept utterly concealed. ||
Since they, out of pure joy, forgot even the worship of the goddess to be completed on the final day
and went straight to Vraja, their rites were completed by that alone;
for when the direct fruit of whatever was desired with love—
the bliss of Kṛṣṇa's acceptance—embraced them, what other cherished desire remained? ||
