Context and Meaning
The camera now pans to Krishna. All this while, Radha’s friend was telling her about all the fun Krishna was having without her. Turns out, it’s not quite true. It is revealed here that Radha had first seen Krishna with other gopis, and had stormed away in anger. The friend was merely amplifying her observations! This ashtapadi is in the first person, and almost reads like a dairy entry of a troubled Krishna. "Oh no, what should I do? I didn’t even stop her when she stormed away!”, he worries, and imagines a conversation he’d have with her if he met her.
Lyrics

He roamed hither and thither in Brundavana for her. At last he sat sadly in a cottage by the side of Yamuna river. |

As I was guilty, I was afraid of preventing her. Oh my god, she lost her respect for me. She is appearing very angry. |
C 2 | kim karishyati kim vadishyati sA chiram virahEna kim dhanEna janEna kim mama jeevitEna gruhENa||hari hari|| | When she is agonised with feeling of separation, what else she would do? what could she say?. What is the use of wealth , home, people and my life, if Radha is not there for me ?. |
