how to get label text inside repeater

Question

I am trying to get the text of a lable when someone clicks on a link button:

this is my code :

   $(document).ready(function () {

        $('[id*="lnkbtn_Remove"]').click(function (event) {
            event.preventDefault();

            var id = $("span[id*=lbl_Reference]").text();
            alert(id); 
        });
    });

But this gets me all the reference in the reapter as I am using "*". Is there anyway to get the actual reference on the row it has been clicked. Here is my html:

 <asp:Repeater ID="rpt" runat="server" >
                        <ItemTemplate>
                            <div class="test">
                                <table>
                                    <tr>
                                        <td>
                                            <div style="width: 230px;">
                                                <asp:Label ID="lbl_Len" runat="server" CssClass="font_bold"></asp:Label>
                                                <br />
                                                <asp:Label ID="lbl_Reference" runat="server"></asp:Label>
                                            </div>
                                        </td>
                                        <td align="left">
                                            <div style="width: 80px;">
                                                <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkbtn_Remove" runat="server" CssClass="rpt_item_Remove">Remove</asp:LinkButton>
                                            </div>
                                        </td>

                                    </tr>
                                </table>
                            </div>
                        </ItemTemplate>
                    </asp:Repeater>

You can get it by something like this,

 var lablelId = $(this).closest('.test').find('[id*=lbl_Reference']).attr('id');
 var lablelText = $(this).closest('.test').find('[id*=lbl_Reference]').text();
