bāta sunu sāṁchī sāṁchī māya!

English meaning

Sitting in the lap of Mother Yashodā, baby Kṛishṇa complains to her about the maidens of Braja lispingly. With great affection, He says to her, “Oh Mother! Listen to what the truth is. These maidens of Braja have no equal in the three worlds. They all smilingly ask Me to marry them. And Maiyā! When I tell them, ‘Let Me take My mother’s permission first’, they stop Me from asking you, threatening Me with their forefinger. Again, holding My hand, they state, ‘Say ‘yes’ for marrying us otherwise, fabricating false stories about You to Mother Yashodā, we will have You tied with a mortar’. This is the hidden secret behind all their complaints.” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, Shyāmasundara adds, “Mother! Get Me married soon, then, all this dispute will be solved automatically.”
