गोपिकोलूखले दाम्ना बबन्ध प्राकृतं यथा ।
तद्दाम बध्यमानस्य स्वाभकस्य कृतागसः ।
व्यङ्गलोनमभूत्तेन सन्द
The poor cowherd-woman bound Him
in the mortar with the rope, as she would
an ordinary person. That rope was two
inches too short for her guilty son who
was to be bound. Hence, she joined
another to it.
तदपि द्वयङ्गलं न्यूनं यद्यदादत्त बन्धनम् ।
स्वमातु
दृष्ट्वा परिश्रमं कृष्णः कृपयाऽऽसीत्स्वबन्धने ॥
Whatever rope she brought, happened
to be two inches short. Seeing the
exhaustion of His mother, with her body
perspiring and her locks and flowers
dishevelled, Krishna, out of pity, allowed
Himself to be bound.
