Kl55. The Kidnapping Of Subhadra

KRISHNA LEELA Arjuna's maternal uncle, Vasudeva Had a daughter, Subhadra. He fell for her beauty, As she looked so pretty. Krishna's brother Balarama, Was in favour of Duryodhana, But Arjuna was Krishna's choice, In his support He gave his voice. Arjuna in guise of a Sanyasi, He stayed in the season rainy At Dvaraka with a plan whereby Subhadra he could soon marry. This Sanyasi Balarama entertained. A close relationship He maintained. Whenever Subhadra went to the temple, To track her, Arjuna had chances ample. In her chariot she went one day, He kidnapped her on the way. She didn't oppose but was happy. With her lover she ran away. This stirred Balarama's anger, That went to the height of danger. But Krishna softened Him down, And begged for His pardon.
