# Bal Kand · Doha 88

**चौ०** 
> जब जदुबंस कृष्न अवतारा। होइहि हरन महा महिभारा॥  
> कृष्न तनय होइहि पति तोरा। बचनु अन्यथा होइ न मोरा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> रति गवनी सुनि संकर बानी। कथा अपर अब कहउँ बखानी॥  
> देवन्ह समाचार सब पाए। ब्रह्मादिक बैकुंठ सिधाए॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> सब सुर बिष्नु बिरंचि समेता। गए जहाँ सिव कृपानिकेता॥  
> पृथक पृथक तिन्ह कीन्हि प्रसंसा। भए प्रसन्न चंद्र अवतंसा॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> बोले कृपासिंधु बृषकेतू। कहहु अमर आए केहि हेतू॥  
> कह बिधि तुम्ह प्रभु अंतरजामी। तदपि भगति बस बिनवउँ स्वामी॥४॥

Meaning: “When Śrī Kṛṣṇa will descend in the line of Yadu to relieve the earth of its oppressive burden, your lord will be born again as His son (Pradyumna); this prediction of Mine shall not be untrue.” (1)

Hearing the words of Śiva, Rati went away. I now proceed to relate the subsequent part of the story. When Brahmā (the Creator) and the other gods received all the tidings, they repaired to Vaikuṇṭha (the abode of God Viṣṇu). (2)

Thence all the gods, including Viṣṇu and Brahmā, went where the all-merciful Śiva was. They severally extolled and won the pleasure of the Lord whose crest is adorned by the crescent moon. (3)

Śiva, who is an ocean of compassion, said, “Tell me, immortals, what for have you come here?” To this Brahmā replied, “Lord, You are the inner dweller of all; even then, my master, my devotion to You urges me to make the following submission: (4)

**दो०** 
> सकल सुरन्ह के हृदयँ अस संकर परम उछाहु।  
> निज नयनन्हि देखा चहहिं नाथ तुम्हार बिबाहु॥८८॥

Meaning: “The heart of all the immortals is seized with a dominating impulse. They long to witness Your wedding ceremony with their own eyes, my lord. (88)
