## Original text

गिरिधर डोलत पाँइन पाँइन । अँगुरी गहें नंदबाबा की घुटुरुवन के चाइन ॥१॥ लटपटाइ पग धरत अटपटे जसुमति लेत बलाइन । कठुला कंठ बाघनख राजत अंग अंग सुखदाइन ॥२॥ यह सुख ब्रह्मादिक कों दुर्लभ जो जीवत संत आइन । सो सुख सूरश्याम कहाँ पैयत जो सुख ब्रज की गाइन ॥३॥

Giridhar toddles along step by step, holding Nandbaba’s finger, delighting after having crawled on His knees. ॥१॥

He places His little feet unsteadily and awkwardly, while Yashoda lovingly wards away all harm from Him. A child’s necklace and a tiger-claw ornament shine around His neck, and every limb of His gives joy. ॥२॥

This joy is difficult even for Brahma and the other gods to obtain, though saints come longing for it. Surdas says: where else can such joy be found as the joy enjoyed by the cows of Vraj with Shyam? ॥३॥
