lād̤alihiṁ līlā lalita rasāla
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Kishorī Jī’s childhood līlās are sweeter than the sweetest. Holding Mother Kīrti’s chin and forehead with Her little hands, She tells her lispingly, “Oh Mother! Today, I had gone to play in the forest with Lalitā and other friends. Suddenly, a group of young ladies arrived there and they all started staring at Me. Then, every one of them kissed My cheeks. Thereafter, they whispered something in one another’s ears. Perhaps it was something bad about Me only.” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, “Then, those maidens went away saying that the pair of Lāla and Lālī will be extremely unique.”

lād̤alihiṁ līlā lalita rasāla
tutarina batiyana kahati mātu te, pakari chibuka aru bhāla
maiyā! gaī rahī khelana vana, saṅga sakhina brajabāla
itanehiṁ māhiṁ anekani nautanu, āīṁ tahaṁ tatakāla
dekhana lagīṁ mohiṁ saba ikaṭaka, puni chūmeu mama bhāla
puni kānana kachhu kahīṁ paraspara, bhaī shaṅka mohiṁ hāla
puni ‘kripālu’ asa kahata chalīṁ bhala, jorī lālihiṁ –lāla
