It is a nice day for us to carry on frolic in water as kRShNa watches. 2. Is it comforting to be separated from kRShNa - the Lotus Eyed? Is it in our capacity to reach the boat to the shore? 3. He is the prince; He has worn ornaments studded with precious stones; 4. It is said that He isn’t a small child; we don’t know whether He will be afraid? 5. People will back-bite about us with His mother; people will slander us to make us ashamed. 6. It will give room for ridicule; yet may our play not be known to the World. __kRShNa to the girls__ 7. O damsels! As You keep pondering among Yourselves, the time is passing away; 8. Enough of it! come here and push the boat into the water. __gOpis – to themselves__ 9. He is the friend of tyAgarAja; He doesn’t listen to the words of the damsels. ---- **Notes** __pallavi__ : __manamAdudAma__ - This is how it is given in the book of TSV/AKG. However, in the book of TKG, it is given as ‘manamAdudAmu’, but the meaning taken is that 'manamAdudAma’. Accordingly, this has been adopted. __caraNa 5__ : __vanca__ – this is how it is given in the books of ATK and TSV/AKG. However, in the book of TKG, it is given as ‘vampimpa’. __caraNa 6__ : __cOTaunu__ – this is how it given in the books of ATK and TSV/AKG. However, in the book of TKG, it is given as ‘jODaunu’. As ‘cOTaunu’ is the correct usage, it has been adopted. __caraNa 7__ : __poyyenu__ – this is how it is given in the book of ATK. In the book of TKG, it is given as ‘poyyeni’. As ‘poyyenu’ is the correct usage, it has been adopted. ---- **Background** ---- This is part of the dance-drama ‘nauka caritraM’ – The Boat Story. The gOpis meet kRSNa at the yamunA river and travel in a boat. ----
