TRANSLATION

Who can, therefore, tolerate the pangs of separation from that
Supreme Personality of Godhead? He could conquer the gravity and
passionate wrath of His sweethearts like Satyabhama and others by His
sweet smile of love, pleasing glance and hearty appeals. When He traversed
my [earth’s] surface, I would be immersed in the dust of His lotus feet
and thus would be sumptuously covered with grass which appeared like
hairs standing on me out of pleasure.

PURPORT

There were chances of separation between the Lord and His thousands
of queens because of the Lord’s being absent from home, but as far as His
connection with earth was concerned, the Lord would traverse the earth
with His lotus feet, and therefore there was no chance of separation. When
the Lord left the surface of the earth to return to His spiritual abode, the
earth’s feelings of separation were therefore more acute.
