jhagaraa karata pakara linee baiMyaa maroree
apanee garaja pakara linee baiMyaa maroree ||
jamunaa ke kevala dhaama maaMgata hai jobana daana

झगरा करत पकर लिनी बैंया मरोरी
अपनी गरज पकर लिनी बैंया मरोरी ॥
जमुना के केवल धाम मांगत है जोबन दान
भाग आई दौड आई बैंया मरोरी ॥
Meaning
A Gopi in Vrindavan complains - \"He (Lord Krishna) squeezed my hand while teasing me I know he did it purposefully! He asked me for my youth (i.e. to make love) on the banks of Yamuna river, (being shy) I ran away from there... And he twisted my hand!”
