Jai Sriman Narayana !!
Srimad Bhagavatha Puranam describes the enthralling verses of Sri Gopika Gitam, narrated by Sage Suka to King Janamejaya.  These beautiful verses reveal the staunch devotion of the young maidens of cow herds/ of Yadhava clan to Lord Krishna.
Oh! Lord Krishna, the Vraja Bhoomi of Yadhavas is ever prosperous due to your glorious birth and the presence of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, hence the people of this sacred land is living a happy life, we Gopis have boundless love towards you and searching for you, earnestly pray for your presence before us.  Oh! Lord Krishna, the luster of your eyes attracts the blooming lotuses on spring seasons in the crystal clear pond, Oh!  King of love, provider of benedictions, and your absence would kill these humble servants of you. Oh! Lord Krishna, you have protected us from the venomous serpent Kaliya, you have saved us from the heavy thunder storm, vanquished the demon Vyoma son of Maya appeared as a bull before you, and eventually you have protected us several times from all those qualms.  Oh! Lord Krishna, You have taken birth in the Yadhava clan at the request of Lord Brahma to protect the world, you are not the child of these young maidens, but you are the soul of all living beings and an intimate companion of us.  Oh! Compassionate Lord, you are the savior of the people, who seek protection of you and those who are anxious of this material life, you grant plenty of boons to your worshipper, we sincerely pray to place lotus like your hands on our heads.  Oh! Lord Krishna, you are the vanquisher of sorrows of people in Vrajabhumi, you are the stunning personality with captivating smiles who destroys the pride of your devotees, and we earnestly pray to please us with your presence.  Oh! Lord Krishna, you are the destroyer of the sins of your worshipper, your lotus feet are the epitome of beauty that accompanies the cows of Vrajabhumi and danced on the thousands hood of the venomous serpent Kalinga, we earnestly pray to keep your lotus feet on our pretty bosom and give pleasure to us.  Oh! Lord Krishna, the attractive and sweet nectar like words from your mouth makes the wise turn into the state of ecstasy, Oh! Our dearest companion, feed us the nectar from your lips and bring us back to life.  Oh! Lord Krishna, the nectar like your myths are the remedy for all the miseries, grief and pains, that was sung by intellectuals capable to enrich with all the devoutness.  The people whoever sung praising of your glories are truly blessed.  Oh! Lord Krishna, your affectionate look, your playful and secret gestures gives us immense pleasure, we earnestly pray to turn our thoughts into the state of supreme bliss and run wildly in a state of ecstasy.  Oh! Lord Krishna, when you accompany the cattle of Vrajabhumi into woods, supple and soft lotus feet of yours hurts while stride over the thorns and stones, it makes our heart turn restless and anxious as well.  Oh! Lord Krishna, your cloud like beautiful hair locks and face covered in dust while returning from woodland would make us uncontrollably passionate towards you, but you just do not bother about it. Oh! Lord Krishna, place your lotus feet meticulously on our bosom, which grant boons to your worshipper and protects from perils, was venerated by Lord Brahma and a marvelous ornament to the world.  Oh! Lord Krishna, give us the pleasure from the nectar of your lips that would increase the passion, extremely enjoyed by the divine flute of yours, capable to destroy the sorrows and put an end to our yearnings.  Oh! Lord Krishna, during day time when you leave to woods would put us in a state of gloomy, seeing you back through your curly hair locks would make us remember the dull witted Lord Brahama. Oh! Lord Krishna, we have deserted our families, our children, husbands, and brothers, eventually took shelter in you Lord Achyutha, who is the knower of all.  But, Lord Krishna, you too have neglected us who have arrived by the attraction of your melodious flute on that night.  Oh! Lord Krishna, your affectionate glance with most charming smile, your broad chest where Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi resides would make us crave for you and our mind get delighted with the marvelous look of yours.  Oh! Lord Krishna, you are the favorite companion of people of Vrajabhumi and compassionate Lord, capable to destroy all our sins and preserver of the Universe; we earnestly pray to cure our aching heart.  Oh! Lord Krishna, place your lotus feet on our hard bosom meticulously, so that it won’t hurt your feet.  Our heart severely aches at the thought of the troubles suffered by your lotus feet while striding over stones and thorns of woods.
