KRISHNA
Mohan Gopala
As your tiny steps walk in
Much swirls in within
Within a nearly empty heart
Expecting a new start and beginning
Waiting to see your teachings start winning
Winning hearts new
Spreading love true
The flute singing strains of love
As gopikas wait with unsatiated love
The waves of Yamuna stand still
The gwal-baals no more squeal
The Kadamb no more flowers
Waiting by the river for hours and hours
To smile in full glory
Catching a glimpse of your more mukut and peetaambari
Come back my Kanha, for you promised, did not you?
Come be a saviour, for there are many Draupadis waiting for you!!
