Translation

Another example: O friend! When the sound of the flute indicating the presence of Kṛṣṇa manifests in the ravine, I stop the flow of tears, I hide my choked voice and conceal the trembling of my body. However, skilful persons have guessed that I have attraction for Kṛṣṇa in my heart.

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

Similarly, one gopī said to another, “My dear friend, when I heard the sound of Kṛṣṇa’s flute, I tried to hide myself from the reaction of the vibrations. But still I could not check the trembling of my body, and therefore all of my friends in the house could detect my attachment for Kṛṣṇa without any doubt.”
