In His previous birth Śacī's son, fair Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya, was a cowherd boy in Gokula.

keha keha jānakī-ballabha chila rāma keha bale nanda-lāla naba-ghana-śyāma
Translation

Some say He was Jānakī's beloved, Lord Rāmacandra. Others say He was Nanda's son, dark like a monsoon cloud.

pūrabe kaliyā chila gopī preme bhora bhābiyā rādhāra baraṇa ebe haila gorā
Translation

In ancient times He was dark, but now, overcome by personally experiencing the love the gopīs feel for Him, He became fair like Śrī Rādhārāṇī.

chala chala aruṇa-nayana anurāgī nā pā-iyā bhābera ora ha-ila bairāgī
Translation

Tears flowed from His reddened eyes. He could not find the limit of that ecstatic love. He renounced everything.

sannyāsī bairāgī haiya bhrame deśe deśe tabu nā pā-ila rādhā premera uddeśe
Translation

He renounced everything, accepted sannyāsa, and wandered from place to place. He tried to understand Rādhā's love, but He could not.

gobinda-dāsiyā kaya kiśorī-kiśora svarūpa rāmera sane se-i rase bhora
Translation

Govinda dāsa says: It was in the company of Svarūpa Dāmodara and Rāmānanda Rāya that Lord Caitanya, overwhelmed, tasted the nectar of ecstatic love for Śrī Śrī Kiśorī-Kiśora, the teenage divine couple.
