Gita Govida – Yami he (Kathita Samaye) Ashtapathi #13 with English Translation

Soulful rendering: Swami B V Muni Maharaj 'Radha Govinda Asram', Radhakund Poet Sri Jayadeva was born in 11th century in Bindu Bilva village near Puri Jagannath Temple in Orissa. His wife Padmavati, was an accomplished temple dancer. He was very much influenced by the culture and devotion of Vaishnava Brahmanas. His magnum opus "Gita Govinda' is one of the most popular compositions in Sanskrit language, describing the divine love of Radha and Krishna. Jayadev, in these verses describes how when Radha reaches Vrindavan to meet Krishna, she does not find him. Her angst has no bounds yet she thinks that maybe she has come to the wrong spot or was misled by the words of others, never the fault of Krishna. The Poet brings out the feeling of separation even if one has deep love for each other like Radha had for krishna English Translation by Ramesh Krishnakumar August 2020
