Pūrvāhna-līlā, Part 1 — Late Morning Pastimes

rādhe! pūrvāhne śrī-kṛṣṇa, dhenu mitra saha calaba vipina deśe jananī janaka, kata-dūra yābe śrī-kṛṣṇera prema-vaśe
Translation

Rādhe! In the early morning Śrī Kṛṣṇa will go to the forest with the cows and His friends. How far will His mother and father follow Him, being under the influence of love for Śrī Kṛṣṇa?

tomā saha morā, dekhite dekhite calimu yāvaṭa mukhe saṅgeta kariyā, kṛṣṇa sei mata cale govardhana sukhe
Translation

Gradually, I will go along with You towards Yāvaṭa. Similarly, at the same time, Kṛṣṇa happily goes to Govardhana.

sūrya-pūjā tare, jāṭilā ādeśa milaba tomāre rādhe pūjā sajja saha, saba sakhī-gaṇe tava abhisāra sādhe
Translation

On the order of Jāṭilā, I will meet with You, Rādhe, for performing the worship of Sūrya. To fulfil Your desire, all the sakhīs will come with paraphernalia for pūjā.

tomāra ādeśe, kṛṣṇera uddeśe tulasī āra āmi dāsī rādhā-kuṇḍa yāñā, kṛṣṇoddeśe lañā divata saṁvāda āsi
Translation

On Your order, Tulasī and myself, Your maidservant, search for Kṛṣṇa. We go to Rādhā-kuṇḍa carrying news of Kṛṣṇa, and come and deliver the news to You.

About Rādhe! Pūrvāhne Śrī Kṛṣṇa Dhenu Mitra Saha

Kṛṣṇa leaves for the pastures while Nanda and Yaśodā follow as far as their love carries them. Back toward Yāvaṭa, Jaṭilā herself orders the sun-worship that becomes the pretext for meeting Kṛṣṇa, and Tulasī and the maidservant go ahead as scouts.
