Simple Translation
215. O Yashodā, your son stirred up the water in the pond
where large lotuses bloom, grasped the tail of Kālingan
the poisonous snake and climbed on its heads, dancing and
shaking its whole body.
We think that was good,
but he stole our clothes, stays on the top of the tree
and refuses to give them back. This isn’t fair.
