Nandas Darling Child

Who can contain his joy, say, on seeing the lotus-like lovely face of Nanda's darling child when he awakes?

His beauty infatuates sages,
and destroys the pride of Kama, it captivates the hearts of hundreds of young girls.

When he softly smiles the gleam of his teeth seems as though rubies have been stringed with pearls.

When my Lord,

Nanda's lovely child goes out, says Suradasa, the people of Braj are bewitched by his loveliness.
