### CC Antya 8.23

> ‘কৃষ্ণ না পাইনু, না পাইনু ‘মথুরা’ ।\
> আপন-দুঃখে মরোঁ — এই দিতে আইল জ্বালা ॥২৩॥

> 'kṛṣṇa nā pāinu, nā pāinu 'mathurā'\
> āpana-duḥkhe maroṅ—ei dite āila jvālā

*kṛṣṇa*—Lord Kṛṣṇa; *nā pāinu*—I did not get; *nā pāinu*—did not get; *mathurā*—Mathurā; *āpana-duḥkhe*—in my own unhappiness; *maroṅ*—i am dying; *ei*—this person; *dite āila jvālā*—has come to give more pain.

**"O my Lord Kṛṣṇa, I could not reach You, nor could I reach Your abode, Mathurā. I am dying in my unhappiness, and now this rascal has come to give me more pain.**
