Brahma-vimohana-līlā
तथेति पाययित्वार्भा वत्सानारुध्य शाद्वले । मुक्त्वा शिक्यानि बुभुजु: समं भगवता मुदा ॥ ७ ॥
tatheti pāyayitvārbhā vatsān ārudhya śādvale muktvā śikyāni bubhujuḥ samaṁ bhagavatā mudā
“তথাই হওক” বুলি গোপবালকসকলে বাছুৰবোৰক নদীৰ পানী খুৱাই, তাৰ পাছত সেউজীয়া কোমল ঘাঁহ থকা ঠাইত বেঁধি দিলে। তাৰ পিছত তেওঁলোকে খাদ্যৰ ঝুলি খুলি ভগৱান শ্ৰীকৃষ্ণৰ সৈতে আনন্দে আহাৰ কৰিলে।
