Tukaram, Poem 1233

They have arranged a game on the banks of
the Yamuna; the cowherd says to his companions, “Let us have a game at hala, stop
wandering idly about! Pick up your sides—then
nobody need complain.” Tuka says, Then Krishna
makes his companion of him who can forget
sesamum seeds and rice.
