आज रावल में बजत बधाई । ढोल भेरि सहनाई शंख ध्वनि बाजत देत सुहाई ॥१॥ वह देखो वृषभान भवनमें विमल ध्वजा फहराई । दूब लै द्विज आये तुरतही कीरत कन्या जाई ॥२॥ नंद यशोदा तन मन फूले आनंद उर न समाई । मंगल साज लिये ब्रज बनिता गावत गीत सुहाई ॥३॥ चोवा चंदन अगर कुमकुमा भादों कीच मचाई । व्यासदास कुँवरि मुख निरखत कुसुमावलि बरखाई ॥४॥
