Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam

Canto 10 Chapter 39 Text 24

tāsāṁ mukundo madhu-mañju-bhāṣitair

gṛhīta-cittaḥ para-vān manasvy api

kathaṁ punar naḥ pratiyāsyate ’balā

grāmyāḥ salajja-smita-vibhramair bhraman

 

TRANSLATION

O gopīs, although our Mukunda is intelligent and very obedient to His parents, once He has fallen under the spell of the honey-sweet words of the women of Mathurā and been enchanted by their alluring, shy smiles, how will He ever return to us unsophisticated village girls?
