English Translation

Pallavi

I do not capacity to describe, the news of,

That Nanda gopa with great penance and  the queen among women Yasoda,

Hugging with great love   that Krishna.

Anupallavi

The world like the earth,

The fourteen worlds like the earth,

Several yogas    similar to the Sankhya,

The Old Vedas pointing out that “This  is the god”,

I have never seen all these nor have I heard,

In the joyful trance  I do not remember any other thing.

Charanam

When the new anklets were newly worn,

It went on making sounds  when he walked   slowly,

And when a calf which lost its fear   started  chasing him,

He hugged  them with  all   his mind.
