Verse Text
yathā vā prācām –
bha-bha-bhramati medinī la-la-landate candramāḥ
kṛ-kṛṣṇa vavada drutaṁ ha-ha-hasanti kiṁ vṛṣṇayaḥ |
sisīdhu mu-mu-muṣca me pa-pa-pa-pāna-pātre sthitaḥ
mada-skhalitam ālapan hala-dharaḥ śriyaḥ vaḥ kriyāt ||37||
Translation
Another example of intoxication from a traditional work: “O Kṛṣṇa! Tell me immediately! Is the earth swerving? Is the moon wobbling? O Yadus, why are you laughing? Give me some wine in a glass!” In this way sitting in his house, Balarāma stuttered while speaking. May that Balarāma give you blessings!
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
Then He addressed Kṛṣṇa, “My dear Kṛṣṇa, tell Me immediately why the whole world is trembling and why the moon has become elongated! And O you members of the Yadu dynasty, why are you laughing at Me? Please give Me back My liquors made of honey from the kadamba flower!” Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī prays that Lord Balarāma will be pleased with all of us while He is thus talking just like an intoxicated person.
