The gopis continue singing their ecstatic song as they remember the pastimes of Lord Krishna. The gopis wanted to go to the forest where Krishna was performing His pastimes and, while remaining concealed, peer through the leaves of the creepers and see the wonder of Krishna and Balarama dancing and singing with Their boyfriends. This was their desire, but because they could not go, they sang this song in ecstatic love.
