Harikrsna Vina Duhkha Kona Hare -

In Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavism:

The setting of the verse is Vrindavan, the pastoral playground of the divine. The opening line traditionally establishes this setting, noting that Krishna ( Hari ) is present in His own abode, Vrindavan. Yet, the mood of the poet is one of Viraha . This creates a paradoxical tension: Krishna is omnipresent in Vrindavan, yet for the separated lover, He feels infinitely distant. The "absence" mentioned in variations of the phrase ("vina") is not a physical distance, but an emotional chasm created by the intensity of love. harikrsna vina duhkha kona hare
