bad̤o kaba hvaihaiṁ hamaro lāla?

English meaning

Mother Yashodā, taking her baby (Kṛishṇa) in her lap and feeling inebriated with motherly love, dreams about the fulfilment of some natural desires of a mother’s heart, and says – “When will that day come when my son will grow big? When will He make me feel beside myself with joy by crawling on all fours in our courtyard? When, holding my fingers for support, will He stand and toddle? When will He talk to me in a baby’s extremely sweet, lisping language? When, holding my garment with His little hand, will He ask for something with tears in His eyes?” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, Mother Yashodā says, “When will that moment come when my son will call me Maiyā?” After saying this, Mother Yashodā, completely overtaken by the emotions of motherly love, could not speak any further, and started kissing the cheeks of her son with great affection.
