Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 17


Sanskrit:

प्रतीक्षतेत्वां दाशार्ह भोक्ष्यमाणो व्रजाधिप: ।एह्यावयो: प्रियं धेहि स्वगृहान्यात बालका: ॥ १७ ॥

ITRANS:

pratīkṣate tvāṁ dāśārhabhokṣyamāṇo vrajādhipaḥehy āvayoḥ priyaṁ dhehisva-gṛhān yāta bālakāḥ

Translation:

Nanda Mahārāja, the King of Vraja, is now waiting to eat. O my dear son Balarāma, he is waiting for You. Therefore, come back to please us. All the boys playing with You and Kṛṣṇa should now go to their homes.

Purport:

It appears that Nanda Mahārāja regularly took his food with his two sons, Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma. Yaśodā told the other boys, “Now you should go to your homes.” Father and son generally sit together, so mother Yaśodā requested Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma to return, and she advised the other boys to go home so that their parents would not have to wait for them.
