TRANSLATION

1) O Krsna, entering the appropriate place (Vrajabhumi), You  appear to  have become initiated in the vow of givine the unprecedented gift of love for Your lotus feet. O Performer of pastimes, You grant pure love for Yourself to Your devotees. That love is like a great festival of spiritual happiness.

 

2) O  Krsna, , O delightful Son of Maharaja Nanda, when  the  (time) for Your birth-ceremony arrived, Your father arranged for a great festival and gave many gifts in charity, thus making the opulent  land  of  Gokula  very auspicious.

 

3) O  Lord  Gopaala, you were then decorated with ornaments and  the  gopis celebrated   a  great  festival,  lovingly  and  jubilantly showering their benedictions upon You and sprinkling You with the milk of the cows of Vraja.

 

4) O Krsna, O Delight of the people of Vraja, Nanda  Maharaja  then greatly  honored the people of Vraja and he opulently gave many opulent  giftrs to them as You drank the breast milk of Your mother Yasoda.

 

5) O Krsna, attaing You as his son, King Nanda considered that he had a great jewel as a son, and he became very anxious for Your protection. When he went to Mathura to pay taxes, he asked the cowherd men to protect his home (in his absence.)

 

6) O Krsna, please be merciful to me. Nanda Maharaja became delighted when he heard the auspicious questions of Vasudeva, who also became jubilant, hearing Nand's transcendental reply.
