Krishna's Dance

Pundarika, Did you see the dance
On top of the venomous Kaliya?
What courage, what nerve, how daring?
I am in awe of Krishna, my dear friend

Call of danger is best left unanswered
O dear Kinkini, Don't you know?
Jeopardising self and the village
Unthinkable for me to do.

Humble he is , yet so powerful
I can't believe he is just a human
Worthy of worship, I bow to him
For saving us all from the hazard

Nature always reclaims what is hers
Through her own acts or through acts of others
