(Based on Sri Madhavdeva's Bhojan Bihar play)
Govindam Paramnandam Sange Gopaye Samanitam
VrindavanaBiharinam Srikrsnam Pranamyaham .
The ever blissful cowherd Lord with all his cowherd friends are playing in the Vrindavana forest ,I bow down to such Sri Krishna .
In This Morning, Mother Yashoda kissing her beloved son, said , “Wake up my son, Gopala (Cowherd),Madan –Gopala ; Your friends are waiting ,take this butter ,take these breads and surely , don’t forget this flute .Now ,go to the Vrindavan and play with your allies , keep our cows in the bank of river Yamuna .” The son of Nanda left His home and going to the forest, because he tends grazing cattle. With playful mood ,Dama ,Sudam and His other friends have joined Him too.By playing the instruments as flute ,horn wind etc ; They are maintaining hundreds and hundreds of cow.
He,who is the Master of all moving and non-moving(s) ;the same Lord has taken this Cowherd form in Nanda’s place to grant happiness to all .
The Lord Said , “ See this place ,O Friends : What a Beautiful Scenario ! The Soft Sand of River Yamuna ! The Mesmerizing natural odour ; the intoxicated bees are running all around the lotus and such flowers .The trees are calling us to take rest under their respective shadows .It is mid-day now,Let us have lunch in this beautiful place.’’
The boys gave water from the river to their cattle ,then themselves drank the pure water of yamuna. They took leaves of trees and made plates , some already had some plates , some took food in their hands.
Vamakakhe Sima bet Bamsi bertit thoiya :Amgulita Fal : Dakhin hate Gras Dhariye : Kanikar Sadrish maje bosiye :suhrida sabaka parihas kariye : Sri krsna Anna bhojan Karata
Lord Krishna have the horn wind instrument called ‘Singa ‘ hanging in the left side of His Body,the wooden flute is in his waist now .With His right hand ,He is eating the food stuff, while He is sitting in the center of the Cowherds just like the pistil of a flower .He is joking with His Friends ;observing His Divine plays from the sky ,The celestial deities are offering their obeisances to Him by showering Flowers.
At that Time ,Narad Muni Came and offer His prayers to Sr Krishna , O Lord, I have searched you in the seven Vaikunthas,In Ananta Sarya , but I have not found you there anywhere . Seeing your feet impressions in the bank of Yamuna ,i found You here. Lord ,grant devotion to Your Servant’s servant.
Narada ask some food from the cowherd boys ,They gave Him ! Remembering The letters ‘V-i-s-h-n-u’ ,by mediating on Krishna’s lotus feet ,Narada eat that food stuff .
