TRANSLATION

1)  Again and again they come and go on Vrndavana forest’s pathways.

2) “With Your own hand give Me Your golden ornaments.” “Who are You? You have no right to make such a demand.

3) “Why do You stare at Me and make these demands? O Krsna, why do You demand all this?”

4) “To Me You must give all the butter You carry.” “Why must You make trouble for Us?

5) “You are Vraja’s prince. Why do You act in a way that is not right?”

6) In this way the divine couple joked and laughed for a long time. So says Govinda dasa.
