## Original text

पूछत जननी कहां ते आये । आज गयो श्रीवल्लभ के घर बहोतक लाड लडाये ॥१॥ विविध भांति पट भूषन ले ले सरस सिंगार बनाये । सीस पाग सिरपेच जु बांधे मोरचन्द्रिका लाये ॥२॥ बहोत भाँति पकवान मिठाई विंजन सरस बनाये । पायस आदि समर्पे मोहि मेरी लीला गाये ॥३॥ प्रेम सहित वल्लभमुख निरखत और न कछु सुहाये । रसिक प्रीतम जु कहत जननी सों आज अधिक सुख पाये ॥४॥
