The beautiful one places His unsteady little feet, and the anklets shine upon them. Yashoda’s heart blossoms with joy and delight; again and again she takes His balaiyā̃. ॥२॥

Gazing upon the lotus-like faces of the cowherd women, He gives joy to all the young women. The Das forever sings of the pastimes of Vraj, which are difficult even for Brahma and the others to attain. ॥४॥
