Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam
[Canto 1, Ch. 11]
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Thākur, there was a regular psychological reaction on the occasion. First of all, rising from their seats, although they wanted to see the husband, they were deterred because of feminine shyness. But due to strong ecstasy, they overcame that stage of weakness and became caught up with the idea of embracing the Lord, and this thought factually made them unconscious of their surrounding environment. This prime state of ecstasy annihilated all other formalities and social conventions, and thus they escaped all stumbling blocks in the path of meeting the Lord. And that is the perfect stage of meeting the Lord of the soul, Śrī Kṛṣṇa.

tam —Him (the Lord);  ātmajaiḥ —by the sons;  dṛṣṭibhiḥ —by the sight;  antara-ātmanā —by the innermost part of the heart;  duranta-bhāvāḥ —insuperable ecstasy;  parirebhire —embraced;  patim —husband;  niruddham —choked up;  api —in spite of;  āsravat —tears;  ambu —like drops of water;  netrayoḥ —from the eyes;  vilajjatīnām —of those compact in shyness;  bhṛgu-varya —O chief of the Bhṛgus;  vaiklavāt —inadvertently.
TRANSLATION
The insuperable ecstasy was so strong that the queens, who were shy, first embraced the Lord in the innermost recesses of their hearts. Then they embraced Him visually, and then they sent their sons to embrace Him [which is equal to personal embracing]. But, O chief amongst the Bhṛgus, though they tried to restrain their feelings, they inadvertently shed tears.
