Translation

Verse 1

Rādhe! (Please hear as I say more). Hearing narrations about Kṛṣṇa, His elder brother Balarāma says with great ecstasy, “O brother Kṛṣṇa, if I do not see You, my strength cannot remain!…

Verse 2

“…Who knows – when You are not looking, a demon may steal the cows. Your friends will suffer greatly, and will go on remembering Hari…

Verse 3

“…If You roam about in the forest with no one accompanying You, I will get worried. The enemy section is powerful and will give You trouble. I, the slayer of enemies, will go with You.”

Verse 4

Kṛṣṇa replies, “O dādā (elder brother), by Your courage and valour, I do not fear anybody. Even if Kaṁsa himself comes, I will destroy him. You stay here and protect the cows.”
