KRISHNA LEELA
Where had Aniruddha gone?
Why for days he didn't return?
What a worry, for all, it caused?
Though four months had elapsed.
The Yadus came to know,
He was imprisoned how?
Deva Rishi Narada when
Gave them an idea then.
The situation became stormy,
When Krishna took an army,
There ensued a big fight,
Both sides used their might.
Led by Krishna on one side,
And Shiva on the other side,
There arose a battle fierce,
That shook the entire Universe.
Krishna defeated one by one.
Finally came Banasura's turn,
Who couldn't resist the attack,
And to his base, he ran back.
Lord Shiva pleaded for him,
Lord Krishna then spared him,
All his arms were cut,
His four arms, in pity, left.
Banasura, the King Bali's son,
Appeared as his successor one,
In the family of King Prahalada,
Under the protection of Krishna.
This promise Krishna remembered,
So his arms only He dismembered,
On Shiva's request set him free,
And accepted him as His devotee.
Banasura expressed his consent,
To their wedding gave his assent,
To Krishna he handed them as a present,
And to the Lord's palace both were sent.
