कृष्णबन्धनम्– THE BINDING OF
 
KRISHNA
 

 
एकदा गृहदासीषु यशोदा नन्दगेहिनी ।

कर्मान्तरनियुक्तासु निर्ममन्थ स्वयं दधि ।

Once, when the servant-maids of the

house were engaged in other work,

Yasoda, the wife of Nanda, was herself

churning the curd.
 

 
तां स्तन्यकाम आसाद्य मध्थ्नन्तीं जननीं हरिः ।

गृहीत्वा दधिमन्थानं न्यषेधत् प्रीतिमावहन् ॥
 

Desiring milk, Krishna approached His
mother who was churning, caught hold of

mother who was churning, caught hold of
the churning rod, and delighting (His

mother), prevented her (from churning).
 

 
तमङ्कमारूढमपाययत् स्तनं

स्नेहस्नुतं सस्मितमीक्षती मुखम् ।

अतृप्तमुत्सृज्य जवेन सा ययौ

उत्सिच्यमाने पयसि त्वधिश्रिते ॥
 

She suckled Him, who had mounted

her lap, with her breast which flowed of

itself in love, and looked at His face with

a smile. (But) even when He was not yet-

satisfied, she left Him in haste and went

away as the milk on the oven was boiling

over.
