KRISHNA LEELA
The success of Rajasuya-yagna,
Gave a name to King Yudhisthira,
Ajata-satru, a man with no enemy,
No doubt, with Krishna's mercy.
Bhima for the kitchen,
Sahadeva for the reception,
Duryodhana for the treasury,
Karna for the charity,
Arjuna to take care elders,
Nakula for the stores,
Krishna, the guests to entertain,
Draupadi for the food distribution.
Of each work, in charge,
Each one did discharge,
It was a total success,
The fruit of their services.
It was beyond description,
To watch the entire scene,
Of this kind no function
In the past held to mention.
But Duryodhana was jealous,
A man, never he was so pious,
His feelings burned inside,
Which he revealed not outside.
The magical palace so illusive,
It cheated his vision evasive,
Water or floor, it wasn't clear,
That fooled him a scene mere.
He fell down walking on water,
It appeared as floor, not water,
He walked carefully on the water,
That wasn't water, but a floor.
Bewildered be became then.
Everyone enjoyed this fun.
He became very much angry,
At Draupadi's laughter from the balcony.
A wrong signal it sent,
To the height of rage he went,
This widened their enmity,
And broke their mutual amity.
