Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami
From the book “Sri Vraja-maṇḍala-parikramā”:
While Śrī Kṛṣṇa sat on Akrūra’s chariot, waiting to depart, He became disturbed upon seeing the condition of the gopīs in their mood of separation. To pacify them, He told them, “I promise that I will surely return the day after tomorrow.” The day after tomorrow is called parsoṅ in Hindi; hence the name of this village became Parsoṅ.
Parsoṅ lies on the road between Govardhana and Varsānā, close to the village of Sī. Kṛṣṇa repeatedly told the gopīs, “I will soon return.” The name Sī originates in the word śīghra, meaning “soon”. This is described in Bhakti-ratnākara as follows:
mathurā haīte śīghra karibe gamana
eī hetu śīghra sī, kahaye sarvajana
eī hetu śīghra sī, kahaye sarvajana
