Gentle Uddhava, is the elder brother of Gada now bestowing on the city women the pleasure that actually belongs to us? We suppose those ladies worship Him with generous glances full of affectionate, shy smiles.

Significado

The name Gadagraja indicates Krishna, the elder brother (agraja) of Gada, the first son of Devarakshita. She was a sister of Devaki's who was also married to Vasudeva. The gopis, by addressing Krishna in this way, indicate that He now thinks of Himself mostly as the son of Devaki, the implication being that His connection with Vrindavana has now slackened. Because of intense love, the gopis could not stop thinking of Krishna for a moment.
