Translation
(1) Accompanied by His noble brother, Krishna went to His guru's home. Now a brahmacari, He eagerly studied His own Vedic literatures. (2) He quickly went to Avantipura. He placed His transcendental form is His guru's assembly. (3) Because He is the Supersoul in everyone's heart, He dearly loves all living entities. (4) He was very devoted to His guru. Accompanied by the other disciples, He brought firewood for His guru. (5) By His guru's mercy, He became learned. When His vow had come to its conclusion, He performed the abhiseka ceremony. (6) When He quickly approached to bring daksina for His guru, His guru desired the return of his son as daksina. (7) Learning that the boy was swallowed by a conch, Krishna searched for him inside the conch. Aware that the boy must certainly have died long ago, Krishna did not stop searching for him. (8) Accompanied by His elder brother, Balarama, Krishna went to yamaraja's abode and then suddenly sounded the conchshell, which was named Pancajanya. (9) Quickly coming, and greeting the Lord with all respect, Yamaraja was filled with happiness. (10) Lord Krishna, who stops the sufferings of the residents of hell, shone like a splendid moon, the master of the stars. (11) Freeing him from death, and giving him a new, youthful body, the Lord took the boy with Him. (12) When Lord Krishna returned their son, the guru and his wife became filled with happiness. (13) Krishna has returned to Vraja. Gaze at His happily smiling face.
