कृष्ण गोकुळीं जन्मला । दुष्टां चळकांप सुटला ॥१॥

Krishna was born in Gokul, and a trembling terror seized the wicked. With the advent of Krishna, joy arose in every household. They sing His blessed name with love and dance in constant bliss. Says Tuka, their sins are carried away as they celebrate with joyful cries.
