KRISHNA LEELA
The King of Karusa, Paundraka,
Posed himself as Vasudeva,
The most acclaimed Supreme Lord,
To be worshiped by all as God.
To Krishna he sent word,
That as the supreme God,
On the earth when he descended,
By Krishna he was offended.
Thus a false show he put up,
And warned Krishna to give up
His position as the God Supreme,
Else he would go to any extreme.
He invited the Lord for a fight,
On this issue to claim his right,
In the midst of a fierce battle,
Who was the real God to settle?
For Yadus it was a crude joke,
How his nose, he dared to poke
On the position of their Krishna,
Who was their real Vasudeva!
A fitting reply Krishna sent,
But this impostor was bent
Upon a fight, for which he went
To show actually what he meant.
Kasi’s King, his friend, rushed
There to help this wicked,
And reinforced the big army.
Then the situation became stormy.
The most sinful offenders both,
At the end, they faced their death
So Krishna after a long fight,
He established His Supreme right.
This acted as a warning,
To the sanyasi and king,
Who, as an avatar of God,
On this earth, they posed!
