An udāharaṇa of avavāda — 'the proclaiming of a fault or grievance' (defined in the intro to this unit as doṣa-prakhyā avavādaḥ syāt, 'avavāda is the making-known of a fault'). It is the first of the thirteen aṅgas of the vimarśa-sandhi listed in the preceding kārikā, ref 95 (avavādo'yaṁ sampheṭo vidrava-drava-śaktayaḥ…). Spoken by Rādhikā savyatham — 'in distress, with a pang' — in the seventh act of the same play: her grievance is that even the long-sought dream of Govinda was snatched from her in an instant.
यह अववाद का उदाहरण है — 'दोष का प्रकट करना' (इस वर्ग के आरम्भ में कहा गया — 'दोषप्रख्या अववादः स्यात्', अर्थात् दोष का जो प्रख्यापन है वही अववाद है)। यह विमर्शसन्धि के तेरह अङ्गों में प्रथम है, जो पूर्व कारिका (सन्दर्भ ९५ — 'अववादोऽयं सम्फेटो विद्रवद्रवशक्तयः...') में गिनाए गए हैं। इसे उसी नाटक के सप्तम अङ्क में राधिका सव्यथम् — 'व्यथा के साथ, पीड़ा भरे मन से' — कहती हैं: उनकी शिकायत यह है कि चिरकाल से चाहे गए गोविन्द का स्वप्न भी क्षणमात्र में छीन लिया गया।

akṣaṇa-bhuvamthe barely-a-moment's ground — into view for less than an instant accusative object of prapede; a-kṣaṇa 'not [even] a moment', bhū (f.) 'ground, span'एक क्षण भी न ठहरने वाली अवधि को
sakhi — O my friend; govindaḥ — Govinda; nayanayoḥ akṣaṇa-bhuvam — the not-even-a-moment's span of my two eyes; prapede — came into.
prapede — प्राप्त हुए; govindaḥ — गोविन्द; sakhi — हे सखी; nayanayoḥ — दोनों नेत्रों की; akṣaṇa-bhuvam — क्षणमात्र भी न ठहरने वाली अवधि को
And in that dream, my friend, Govinda came into the range of my eyes — but only for the space of a single fleeting instant, not a moment more.
हे सखी, गोविन्द मेरे दोनों नेत्रों की उस अवधि को ही प्राप्त हुए जो एक क्षण भी न ठहरी — अर्थात् वे नेत्रों के सामने क्षणमात्र भी न रहे।

sa puruṣaḥ khalu — that man, of all people; rāja-puruṣaḥ — the king's officer; kathaṁ pratyāsannaḥ — how did he come pressing so close!
kathaṁ — यह क्या; pratyāsannaḥ — समीप आ पहुँचा; sa khalu puruṣaḥ — वह पुरुष ही; rāja-puruṣaḥ — राजपुरुष
how did that man — the king's own officer — come pressing right up! With his chariot he drew near to carry Govinda off, and so even the dream's one glimpse was torn away. This is avavāda: Rādhā proclaims her grievance, that separation broke in even upon the long-sought dream itself.
यह क्या! वह पुरुष — और वह भी राजपुरुष (राजा का सेवक) — कैसे समीप आ पहुँचा! (और रथ लेकर चला गया।)

O my friend, at long last today a dream came to me — one I had brought on only through many efforts of every kind — and in it Govinda entered the range of my two eyes, but for barely more than an instant; and then — alas, alack! — even inside that very dream that same man, the king's own officer no less, hastily seizing his chariot, how did he come pressing right up and carry Govinda away!
हे सखी! बहुत समय के बाद आज, अनेक प्रकार के प्रयत्न से जब मेरे स्वप्न में गोविन्द आ पहुँचे, तब वे मेरे दोनों नेत्रों की उस अवधि को ही प्राप्त हुए जो एक क्षण भी न ठहरी — अर्थात् नेत्रों के सामने क्षणमात्र भी न रहे। और हाय! हन्त! उस स्वप्न में भी वह पुरुष — और वही राजपुरुष (राजा का सेवक) — शीघ्रता से रथ लेकर कैसे समीप आ पहुँचा, यह क्या!
