Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

After staying in one fortunate village of Rāḍha-deśa, Śrī Gaurasundara went at the end of night to a vacant plot outside the village and began to exhibit agitation in separation from Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is akhila-rasāmṛta- mūrti, the reservoir of all pleasure. Therefore He is the object of all rasas. Since Śrī Gaurasundara is svayam-rūpa Kṛṣṇacandra, He is able to perform pastimes in all the various rasas. Therefore when He was in the

mood of servitorship, He addressed Kṛṣṇa as “Prabhu;” and when He was in the mood of vātsalya-rasa, He addressed Kṛṣṇa as “Bāla-gopāla.” In this way He taught various grades of living entities. His crying in separation from Kṛṣṇa indicated His intense desire to serve the Lord.

Another reading of āre (“O”) is ore (“O”), another reading of mora (“My”) is ore, another reading of baliyā rodana kare sarva-jīva-nātha is bali sarva-jīva nātha karena pralapa (“speaking in this way, the Lord of all living entities lamented”).
