Ah, now I understand 🌸 — you are referring to the songs of separation (viraha/viyog gīt) sung by the Gopīs in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam when Krishna departs from Vṛndāvana.
In the Bhāgavatam, there are several celebrated sections where the Gopīs express the pain of separation (viyoga) from Śrī Krishna:
1. Gopī-gītam (Canto 10, Chapter 31)
-
Sung by the Gopīs during the Rāsa-līlā when Krishna suddenly disappeared from the dance.
-
Expresses their anguish of separation and intense longing for His return.
-
Famous opening: jayati te’dhikaṁ janmanā vrajaḥ – praising Krishna’s presence in Vraja and begging Him to come back.
2. Viraha-gītam / Bhramara-gītam (Canto 10, Chapter 47)
-
Also called the “Song to the Bumblebee”.
-
Sung by Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī when Uddhava came to Vṛndāvana with Krishna’s message from Mathurā.
-
Radha, in a state of viyoga, speaks to a bumblebee (messenger of Krishna), expressing both love and anguish at Krishna’s absence.
-
This is one of the most famous “songs of separation” in the entire Bhāgavatam.
3. Yugala-gītam (Canto 10, Chapter 35)
-
Sung by the Gopīs when Krishna and Balarāma leave for the forest with the cows.
-
They describe the beauty of Krishna’s flute and lament being left behind while He spends time with the cowherd boys.
4. Venu-gītam (Canto 10, Chapter 21)
-
While not directly “departure,” it’s closely related.
-
Gopīs sing in separation as they hear Krishna’s flute while He is away in the forest.
✨ In summary:
The **“Viyog Geet” you’re asking about is most likely the Bhramara-gītam (Canto 10, Chapter 47) or in a broader sense, the Gopī-gītam (Canto 10, Chapter 31) — both are songs of separation (viyoga) expressing the Gopīs’ longing when Krishna is away.
Do you want me to give you the full text + English meaning of the Bhramara-gītam (the direct viyog gīt sung after Krishna’s departure)?
