CC Madhya 20.36
Madhya-līlā, Chapter 20, Text 36
তারে বিদায় দিয়া গোসাঞি চলিলা একলা ।
হাতে করোঁয়া, ছিঁড়া কান্থা, নির্ভয় হইলা ॥ ৩৬ ॥
হাতে করোঁয়া, ছিঁড়া কান্থা, নির্ভয় হইলা ॥ ৩৬ ॥
tāre vidāya diyā gosāñi calilā ekalā
hāte karoṅyā, chiṅḍā kānthā, nirbhaya ha-ilā
hāte karoṅyā, chiṅḍā kānthā, nirbhaya ha-ilā
Word by word
tāre vidāya diyā — bidding him farewell; gosāñi — Sanātana Gosvāmī; calilā ekalā — began to travel alone; hāte — in the hand; karoṅyā — a beggar’s pot; chiṅḍā kānthā — a torn quilt; nirbhaya ha-ilā — he became free from all anxiety.
Translation
After departing from Īśāna, Sanātana Gosvāmī began traveling alone with a waterpot in his hand. Simply covered with a torn quilt, he thus lost all his anxiety.
